Monument to Fernando Pessoa in front of cafe A Brasileira, in the city of Lisbon, dictrict of Chiado, Garret street (Rua Garrett). Fernando Antonio Nogueira de Seabra Pessoa (1888 in Lisboa - 1935 in Lisboa) was a poet. In 1914, three distinct subpersonae (heteronyms, as Pessoa called them) emerged from his imagination, poets with sharply differentiated biographies and styles: Alberto Caeiro, the innocent Master; Alvaro de Campos, the willful decadent; Ricardo Reis, the hyper-restrained classicist. The sudden appearance of these mature poets released the poet within Pessoa himself, who wrote yet another group of poems in his own name. Refusing, from inanition or laziness, every sort of advancement, he made a bare living as a translator until he died in 1935, an alcoholic and recluse.

Nice capture Mikolaj, interesting subject and textures, colours are natural too, well photographed

Hi Mikolaj,
Nice clear shot, your composition here looks great. An interesting place for a sculpture, the exposure looks balanced throughout this scene. Well spotted, and even more importantly, well photographed.

TFS,

Olá Mikolaj,
The title you had choose is the same for me, because F. P. (Ricardo Reis) is my fevorite poet. Great shot and homage. It's a great capture.
Obrigado e abraço,
Raimundo

dear Mikolaj Cava,
an excellent shot of the artistic and humorous bronze statue.
why human like statues...in the city, in the museum, in the desert...
maybe solid figures look like stopping the time,
and those are standing letters like poets.
anyway, you captured a shining of the monument and the moment,
right vacant chair is more poetic.
thank you,
Akihisa

Hello MNikolaj,
Interesting notes about a master poet.
Well captured and clear image.
I like off centre position of sculpture
