Ópera & caricatura: o Teatro de S. Carlos na obra de Rafael Bordalo Pinheiro [2 vols.]
Author(s):
The caricaturist Rafael Bordalo Pinheiro was a regular attendee of the Teatro de São Carlos. In his newspaper O António Maria, he created several caricatures of the performances at this theater, thus presenting opera in its most comedic aspect. These caricatures provide us with valuable information about singers, impresarios, the audience, and the cultural life of Lisbon at the end of the 19th century. The author's approach focuses on iconographic-musical aspects in their most intimate connection with Musicology, History, Sociology, and Art History.
