About This Book

O ensaio oferece um panorama histórico da gravura em Portugal, identificando fontes e colecções, assinalando a presença marcante de tipógrafos estrangeiros nas edições ilustradas iniciais e destacando gravadores e impressores notáveis dos séculos XVI e XVII. Analisa frontispícios, retratos e vinhetas em obras impressas, discute a proveniência das chapas e registra esforços de catalogação em bibliotecas e academias. Com referências bibliográficas e exemplos concretos, aponta lacunas documentais e sugere caminhos para investigação mais aprofundada sobre a produção e a circulação de gravuras no país.
