EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration showcases the awe-inspiring Doorway of the Convento dos Jerónimos Monastery in Belem, Portugal. Built on the site of a Seaman's Home founded by Prince Henry the Navigator in 1498, this historical monument stands as a testament to Portugal's rich maritime past. Prince Henry, a visionary leader and patron of explorers, established the Seaman's Home to provide shelter, care, and support for sailors and their families before they embarked on their perilous voyages. The Monastery, completed in 1520, was built to honor St. Jerome and serves as a symbol of Portugal's devotion to exploration and discovery. Vasco da Gama, the renowned Portuguese explorer who is credited with discovering the sea route from Europe to India, spent the night before his historic voyage of discovery at the Seaman's Home in 1497. This significant event further solidified the connection between the Monastery and Portugal's maritime achievements. The intricately designed doorway, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details, is a masterpiece of Manueline architecture. The style, unique to Portugal, is characterized by its complex, intertwining patterns inspired by maritime elements such as ropes, shells, and ships. This illustration, created in 1932 by an unknown artist, captures the essence of the Doorway of the Convento dos Jerónimos Monastery in Belem, offering a glimpse into Portugal's rich history and its enduring connection to the sea.
