This version of the Catalogue Raisonné includes some of Aurélia de Souza’s photographs from the set of around two hundred glass negatives recently acquired by the Commission for the Acquisition of Works of Art for National Museums and Palaces to enrich the collection of the Soares dos Reis National Museum, which already includes several of the artist’s works, including the Self-Portrait, classified as a National Treasure.
