Special Exhibits - Cruz Filipe and Maria Lamas

There were two special exhibits, one by Cruz Filipe and another celebrating Maria Lamas.






 

Maria Lamas (6 October 1893 – 6 December 1983) was a Portuguese writer, translator, journalist, and feminist political activist. One of her most important books was As Mulheres do Meu País or The Women of My Country (1948-1950), which was illustrated with her photographs.



Maria also translated many books.

An unusual Rodin statue was in the museum lobby.


After a long day, a glass of sangria and a tasty sea bass dinner.
