CASA-MUSEU JOSÉ RÉGIO
Museums
Read moreThe museums of private collectors are the most surprising in Portugal. José Regio was a man marked, if not obsessed, by the Christ figure. The first room reveals this to us, surprising for its collection of Christ on the Cross. Collection is a weak word to talk about this accumulation of folk art sculptures from the 16th to the 18th century. Some of them have strange peculiarities, such as the Christ on the female hip or the sculpture with crucified hands, whose index fingers are the only ones stretched. The other parts are less interesting.
