Models and drawings are essential tools for understanding architecture; they reveal the form and physical expression of buildings. This exhibition brings together a collection of models that, having previously been displayed to represent architectural works, were placed in the care of the Belém Cultural Center.

Twenty years after their initial presentation, they serve as treasures that reveal more than mere reflections of an era.
