One Collection, Many Paths

Mostly acquired at national and international auctions, the collection on display is of great artistic unity and coherence. It is the achievement of the will and tenacity of a man whose mission was to ‘recover’ pieces of Portuguese heritage, leading him to become one of the great collectors of the 20th century.

To visit the Museum is to embark on a journey through the Decorative Arts from the 15th to the 18th century and across various thematic sections: Furniture, Textiles, Silverwork, Chinese Porcelain, Portuguese Faïence and Tiles, Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Binding, etc.
