A ESCULTURA EM PORTUGAL

Reynaldo dos Santos

REF.36007

Year 1948

Lisbon; National Academy of Fine Arts - Bertrand (Brothers) Printing Workshops; In-Folio of 2 volumes; Illustrated; Paperback

A fundamental work by the art historian and physician Reinaldo dos Santos. The book emerges at a time when Portuguese artistic historiography was beginning to consolidate itself as an autonomous discipline, and the author—one of the central figures of this movement—sought to systematize knowledge about national sculptural production. The work presents a historical journey from the Romanesque period to the 19th century, analyzing styles, materials, techniques, and external influences. Reinaldo dos Santos dedicates special attention to medieval sculpture in stone and wood, the splendor of the Manueline style, Renaissance sculpture influenced by foreign masters, and the development of the Baroque, especially in the religious context. He also highlights the importance of regional workshops and lesser-known sculptors, valuing the diversity and continuity of Portuguese sculptural traditions. Luxurious edition, printed on excellent quality paper and illustrated with hundreds of reproductions of the most notable examples of Portuguese sculpture. Divided into two volumes, the first from the 12th to the 15th century and the second from the 16th to the 18th century. Copies with faint signs of handling on the paperback covers, interior in good condition.

HISTÓRIA DA REVOLTA DO PORTO

João Chagas

REF.36015

Year 1978

Lisbon; Assírio & Alvim; In-8º of 470(2) pages; Illustrated; Paperback

“In writing this work, the authors' intention is neither to justify the Revolt of January 31, 1891, to the future, nor to justify to their contemporaries the collaboration they had in it. (...) Their intention is different. They were able, over the course of ten years, to observe that the Revolt of January 31, 1891, was not the bloody but fruitless adventure of a band of passionate sectarians, and that it had not faded from history as the trace of the very blood it caused to be shed faded. A work of great interest for the study of the history of this Revolt. Profusely illustrated with portraits and photographs of the events that took place in Porto, facsimiles of documents and newspapers, etc. Copy with a fold in the paperback cover, interior in good condition.”
