Ateliê António Carneiro
Museums & Thematic Centres
Casa Oficina António Carneiro was built in the 1920s as a studio for the artists António Carneiro (1872-1930), a remarkable figure of Symbolism in Portugal, and his son Carlos Carneiro (1900-1971), a modernist painter. Here also lived the other son of António Carneiro, the composer Cláudio Carneiro (1895-1963).
The collection of the House-Workshop consists of about three hundred works by the artist, including the final study for “A Vida”, the painting “Camões lendo os Lusíadas aos frades de São Domingos”, self-portraits and a series of family portraits, as well as seascapes, church interiors and panoramic views of Porto.
This house is a rare example of an early 20th-century artist's studio.
