Today I bring you a model that is a rare relic.
The theme is a Portuguese monument by a Portuguese publisher and a Portuguese cartoonist who has already passed away, José Garcês, a man known for his comics.
The model is the Jerónimos Monastery and is dated 1989.
The Jerónimos Monastery is one of the most visited monuments in Portugal and is located in Lisbon, next to the Tagus River and near the place in Belém where the discoveries fleets departed.
Its construction began in 1501/1502, at the same time that Portugal reached India. The building is not particularly tall like other large monuments in Europe, but it occupies a huge area and has such a large amount of small details that it is impossible to remain indifferent.
To begin, here is an infographic image and some links.
