EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the breathtaking Ajuda National Palace, located in the civil parish of Ajuda in Lisbon, Portugal. Dating back to circa 1900, this three-storied neoclassical monument stands as a testament to Portugal's rich history. Originally built on the site of a temporary wooden palace erected for the Royal family after the devastating 1755 earthquake and tsunami, the palace was intended to be a late Baroque-Rococo building, but was later transformed into the current neoclassical design by architect Manuel Caetano de Sousa. The open areas at either end of the palace add to its grandeur, creating an inviting and spacious atmosphere. The Ajuda National Palace is not only a significant architectural landmark but also a symbol of resilience and renewal in the face of adversity. This photograph is part of the Boswell Collection, Box 149, and is a reminder of the cultural connections between Spain and Portugal.
