As part of the celebrations on the fifth centenary of Camões' birth, the Cultursintra FP Foundation organised a temporary exhibition dedicated to António Augusto de Carvalho Monteiro's Camonian collection at MU.SA – Museu das Artes de Sintra (Sintra Museum of Arts) between January and April 2025.
In continuity with this project, an infographic exhibition is now on display at Quinta da Regaleira, introducing to the public Carvalho Monteiro's collection, considered the largest and most complete Camonian collection of the 19th century.
In addition, illustrations about the life of the poet Luís Vaz de Camões and representations of episodes from his masterpiece, Os Lusíadas, are presented in an didactic approach.
