Summary "Notas d'arte" by António de Lemos is a collection of art critiques and reflections written in the early 20th century. Through detailed observations and personal impressions, the author discusses various exhibitions and artworks, highlighting the evolution of art in Portugal, the significance of artists, and the changing public perceptions of artistic expressions. The work serves as a commentary on the artistic landscape and the societal influences that shape it. At the start of "Notas d'arte," the editor's note addresses typographical errors in the text, leading into the author's introductory observations on how art reflects the customs of a society, citing philosopher Taine. Lemos subsequently critiques an exhibition organized by the Instituto de Estudos e Conferências, sharing his impressions of numerous artworks on display, ranging from paintings to sculptures. He admires the skills of artists like Malhoa and Silva Porto, noting their contributions to Portuguese art, while also expressing disappointment in critics lacking artistic understanding. The opening sets the tone for a reflective exploration of artistic merit and the evolving art scene in early 20th century Portugal. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
