Invited by Belmond to photograph Rio de Janeiro’s legendary Copacabana Palace, Venezuelan photographer Ángel Castellanos created a vivid portrait of a hotel where glamour, memory and myth converge. Working with Vogue editor Sebastian Cabrices and drawing on his deep connection to the city, he captured the spirit of the “Copa” through vibrant portraits and luminous scenes that celebrate Rio’s exuberant beauty. Opened in 1923 to mark a century of Brazilian independence, the Copacabana Palace has welcomed film stars, artists and royalty, becoming a symbol of elegance and joie de vivre lovingly preserved by Belmond. Castellanos’s photographs, sensual and cinematic, reveal a Brazil both opulent and unrestrained, with the hotel shining as the imaginative heart of the city.
