(Colorir Portugal)

A arquitetura portuguesa, da mais imponente à mais comum, está repleta de padrões nos azulejos, nos revestimentos para o chão, nos estuques dos tetos dos edifícios e na arte de trabalhar o ferro forjado. Também está presente no artesanato, como nas rendas de Bilros, onde surgem desenhos complexos. As inúmeras representações figurativas, que ilustram cenas da nossa história, surgem nos vitrais, nas talhas douradas das igrejas e outros monumentos, nos murais de azulejos, na pedra trabalhada ou simplesmente nas mensagens de amor como nos “lenços dos namorados” de Viana. Apresentamos aqui uma série de padrões e figuras de edifícios portugueses para colorir e é impossível não ficarmos encantados com o detalhe e genialidade de algumas destas composições.
Esperamos que se divirtam e relaxem ao pintar este livro e, simultaneamente, contemplem a riqueza do pormenor arquitetónico, que era característico de épocas anteriores.
