A photo exhibition at the Overseas Chinese Museum of China in Beijing focuses on the lesser-known cowboy culture in Brazil.

The 70 pictures on show were taken in 2018 by Wang Weiguang, a Brazil-based Chinese photographer during his 5,000-km drive in the South American country.

They showcase the nomadic cowboys’ lifestyle in Sertao, a dry region in the northeast of Brazil.

According to Wang, his exhibition focuses on the modern cowboy culture in the West and the dying tradition from a global perspective.

The exhibition will run until Mar 24, and all the exhibits will be acquired by the museum.
