The Manueline: Portuguese Art during the Great Discoveries (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783902782984)

The Manueline: Portuguese Art during the Great Discoveries reveals the splendours of an era that skilfully brought Portugal into the Modern Age. Alongside the formidable adventures of the Great Maritime Discoveries, King Manuel I (1469-1521) included the related fields of both Church and State in artistic activities that were without precedent. What resulted was a style which was not only historically unique, but which was perfectly emblematic of its country of origin and of the monarch after which it was named.

Fourteen itineraries invite you to discover 182 museums, monuments and sites in 60 locations.
