EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking colour lithograph print depicts the Expulsion of the Jews from Portugal in 1496, a dark chapter in history that highlights the persecution and discrimination faced by Jewish people during this time. The artist, Alfredo Roque Gameiro, captures the somber moment with great detail and emotion, showcasing the pain and despair of those being forced to leave their homes and livelihoods behind.
The image is part of a series titled Quadros da Historia de Portugal, originally published in Lisbon in 1932. It serves as a powerful reminder of the intolerance and bigotry that have plagued societies throughout history. The expulsion of the Jews from Portugal was just one example of many instances where religious prejudice led to violence and displacement.
Through this artwork, we are confronted with the harsh realities of antisemitism and religious persecution. It prompts us to reflect on how far we have come as a society in terms of tolerance and acceptance towards different faiths and cultures. The vivid colours used by Gameiro add depth to the scene, drawing viewers into this pivotal moment in history.
As we gaze upon this print, let us remember those who suffered unjustly due to their beliefs or heritage. May it serve as a poignant reminder to stand against discrimination in all its forms and strive for a more inclusive world where everyone is valued and respected.
