Summary
A visual epigram emerges from the decorative art of the Teatro Amazonas, revealing a blend of Italian and Amazonian aesthetics. The study highlights eleven parietal panels designed for the theater's grand hall, ten depicting Amazon landscapes and one featuring a scene from Carlos Gomes' opera 'Il Guarany.' This intentional homage to the late composer underscores the cultural significance of the theater's inauguration in 1896. The research explores the artistic collaboration between Chrispim do Amaral and Italian artists from the Accademia di San Luca, offering insights into the fusion of European and local influences during the 19th century in Manaus.
