Valença (Francisco) papers

Correspondence, Series I. 1900-1962, undated

Physical Description: 1.6 Linear Feet (4 Boxes)

Scope and Contents

Series I comprises files of correspondence, generally between Portuguese artists, caricaturists, writers, journalists, politicians, intellectuals and Valença. Letters are typically handwritten and may include typewritten poems or personal documents. Although there is a large range of people who contacted Valença there are only a small number of letters from each correspondent. Taken as a whole the series offers a great overview of the artist's network in times of political changes and press censorship. Among the highlights of this series are the files with correspondence of Manuel Aníbal da Costa Monterroso, Tomás Júlio Leal da Câmara and Artur Ernesto Santa Cruz de Magalhães and Valença.
