A book with this title was originally published 1959, based on an exhibition which took place at the Galeria Diário de Notícias in 1958 with pictures taken since 1956. It was something of a breakthrough for the photographic edition in Portugal. The present book, with the same title, appears to have used different photographs, taken from 1982 to 1989. On the extremely versatile architect, writer, graphic artist, painter, photographer, publisher and translator Vitor [Manuel] Palla [e Carmo], see Dicionário cronológico de autores portugueses, V, 224-6.
