Description

The result of extensive research by Unesp professor Percival Tirapeli, this richly illustrated work covers three centuries of colonial art and is divided into three parts - colonial urbanism, ecclesiastical architecture and sacred art - furniture and ornamentation. "Colonial Urbanism" addresses the differences and approximations between the tracings and the planned urbanism of the Spanish-American and Portuguese-Brazilian cities. "Ecclesiastical architecture" analyzes the cathedrals of the viceroys, the audiences and the Brazilian sés. The section "Sacred art - furniture and ornamentation" completes the analyzes of the churches, dealing with their altarpiece façades, the furnishings of the altars and their ornamental complements, such as sculptures and paintings.
