Casa do Capitulo - Excursions near Lisbon, 1875
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite photograph capturing the exterior of the Casa do Capitulo, or Chapter House, located near Lisbon, Portugal. The image is taken from Henry Walter Bates' "Illustrated Travels," published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London during the 1880s. The Casa do Capitulo, a magnificent architectural marvel, is a testament to the rich history and artistic heritage of Portugal. The building's exterior is adorned with intricate hand-carved stonework, showcasing elaborate designs and ornate grilles. The carved details add depth and texture to the structure, making it a feast for the eyes. The Chapter House was likely part of a larger monastery or religious complex, as evidenced by the religious motifs and symbols present in the carvings. The large arched windows let in natural light, illuminating the interior spaces and creating an inviting atmosphere. The photograph, taken in the late 19th century, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of European exploration and discovery. The image is a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that can be found in the world's historical sites and monuments. The Casa do Capitulo stands proudly against the backdrop of the Portuguese countryside, a symbol of the country's rich cultural heritage. The photograph, with its timeless quality, invites us to explore the world and discover the wonders that lie within. The print, from the collection of The Print Collector, remains an enduring reminder of the beauty and history of the Casa do Capitulo and the excursions near Lisbon, Portugal.
