Tour at the exhibition “Pearls of Portugal”
The exhibition showcases the rich history and artistic diversity of Portuguese ceramic tiles known as azulejos. These beautiful tiles cover the walls of churches, monasteries, palaces, metro stations, and residential buildings in Portugal, becoming an integral part of the urban landscape and reflecting the country’s rich cultural history for over 500 years.
Colorful and intricately detailed, the tiles vividly tell stories of history, religion, and everyday life, taking the viewer on a captivating journey through different eras.
The exhibition is organized in cooperation between the Art Museum of Estonia and the National Azulejo Museum of Portugal (Museu Nacional do Azulejo).
The tour will be led by art historian Karin Vicente.
