A tribute to the Portuguese writer
Eça de Queiroz
A project of photopainting made in cooperation with Mestre Júlio Santos.
The story of a Portuguese family, at the end of the 19th century, became one of the most consecrated works in the world. From the hands of Eça de Queiroz, its a realistic script that pointed out all the defects of the protagonists, the family Maias.
The Palace of Ramalhete its represented by the portuguese House of Sezim in Guimarães and the Museum of the Biscainhos in Braga, which are some of the stages of the action.
In these places there are typical characters of a "queirosiano" time:
fatal women, corrupt politicians, utopian young people who take on a role of change in the future of the country, so that, in the end, they have done nothing.
