Barra de São Miguel, Brazil
Barra de São Miguel, Brazil is named for Saint Michael the Archangel, a vital figure since the earliest days of Catholicism. In the Roman Catholic tradition, the name Michael means, "Who is like God?,” reflective of the question Michael rhetorically asks Satan in the Bible. Therefore, Saint Michael has come to symbolize the victory of good over evil, and has been widely represented in Catholic art throughout the ages.
