"Creole Dance" (Spanish: "Candombe") is a painting by Uruguayan artist Pedro Figari (1861–1938), who is renowned for his vibrant depictions of early 20th-century life in the Rio de la Plata region of South America. Figari, a self-taught artist, lawyer, and writer, turned to painting later in life and developed a distinctive style characterized by loose brushwork and a vivid color palette. His works often reflect the cultural and social milieu of Uruguay and Argentina, with a particular focus on Afro-Uruguayan culture and traditions.

"Creole Dance" is emblematic of Figari's artistic oeuvre, capturing the energy and rhythm of the Candombe, an Afro-Uruguayan dance form with roots in African slave communities. The painting portrays dancers in motion, their bodies seemingly swaying to the beat of the drums, which are a central element of the Candombe tradition. Figari's use of color and form conveys the dynamism and communal spirit of the dance, while also serving as a document of the cultural heritage of the region.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its cultural representation. Through works like "Creole Dance," Figari played a crucial role in celebrating and preserving the Afro-Uruguayan heritage, which had often been marginalized in the country's history. His paintings are considered an important part of Uruguay's national identity and contribute to the understanding of the cultural landscape of South America during the early 20th century.

"Creole Dance" is held in high regard among Figari's body of work and is frequently studied for its historical and cultural significance as well as its aesthetic qualities. The painting is a testament to Figari's ability to capture the essence of a cultural moment through his unique artistic language, and it remains an influential piece in the canon of Latin American art.
