Summary

Francisco Venegas & Amaro do Vale |
Description |
English: Painted ceiling of the Church of St. Roch, in Lisbon. The painted ceiling of the nave is a trompe l'oeil composition so as to give the illusion of a barrel vaulting supported by four large arches. Between the arches squared balconies are painted and "above" these balconies there are three huge domes or cupolas rising on rings of open arches and columns. The initial work was painted in 1588 by Francisco Venegas (1578-1590), royal painter to King Philip II. The Jesuits commissioned later the large central medallion (The Exaltation of the Cross), as well as the 8 large rectangular paintings and 12 monochrome panels depicting Biblical events. The ceiling near the front of the church was damaged in the 1755 Earthquake and was rebuilt and repainted afterwards. It is the oldest painted ceiling remaining in Lisbon. Português: Tecto pintado na Igreja de São Roque, em Lisboa. O tecto pintado da nave é uma composição em trompe l'oeil de modo a criar a ilusão de uma abóbada de berço suportada por quatro arcos. Entre os arcos, encontram-se varandins quadrados e "acima" desses varandins encontram-se três enormes cúpulas suportadas por arcaria e colunas. A obra foi inicialmente executada em 1588 por Francisco Venegas (1578-1590), pintor da corte de D. Filipe II. Os Jesuítas encomendaram, mais tarde, o medalhão central (A Exaltação da Cruz), bem como as 8 pinturas rectangulares e os 12 painéis monocromáticos representando eventos bíblicos. O tecto perto do altar foi danificado no Terramoto de 1755, e foi reconstruido e pintado de novo depois. É o tecto pintado mais antigo de Lisboa. |
