1. 1. El Manuelino

   

   A focused study of the Manueline architectural and decorative style that flourished in Portugal during the reign of King Manuel I, tracing its evolution from late Gothic roots through encounters with Renaissance and Islamic influences, identifying characteristic motifs (nautical ropes, armillary spheres, vegetal ornamentation and exotic animals), surveying major monuments and workshops, and situating the style within the political, economic and symbolic framework of the Age of Discoveries and emerging Portuguese imperial identity.
