The collection of 572 ivory sculptures at the Museu Histórico Nacional is a true marvel, unlike any other in the world. Spanning several Brazilian states, these masterpieces were gathered by José Luiz de Souza Lima between 1919 and 1930. After being pawned to the Caixa Econômica Federal, the collection was finally acquired by the museum in a historic decision by President Getúlio Vargas in 1940. The collection is not just a set of artistic artifacts but also a window into the religious and societal dynamics of their time. Important scholarly work on this collection began in the late 1980s under the guidance of Lucila Morais Santos. Through her innovative research, she explored how these sculptures served as instruments of catechesis, revealing the dominant religious concerns of different eras and regions. This catalog presents an overview of the collection, complete with descriptive insights and high-quality images capturing the intricate details of each piece. A significant contribution to the study of religious art, this catalog offers readers a chance to deeply engage with the historical and cultural narratives embedded in these sculptures.

Usage ideas This catalog is perfect for art historians, collectors of religious artifacts, and anyone interested in the preservation of cultural heritage. It can serve as an educational resource in academic settings or as a beautiful coffee table book that sparks conversations. Furthermore, it is a great gift for those who have a passion for art and history.
