This is one of the many 100*100cm paintings done for the exhibition held at the Banco Portugal this year. It was a great success and the staff were exceptionally helpful. I recommend this gallery to anyone. It is no longer a bank, but it used to be one of the central banks of Portugal. Now it has been converted into a gallery, with the sponsorship of the local municipality. It still has the original heavy wooden de core and the old vault in the basement. The only things in the basement safe is some old furniture, it is just a convenient storage space. Having worked in an old bank before, it was very interesting to be given the tour.
