he lived during monarchy and was a hard critic of the system, having been censored a lot. sad to think he died in 1905, just before the instauration of the portuguese republic in 1910!
on saturday we went to the museum of our best political cartoonist! you can see some of his great work in drawing and ceramics, we really liked it a lot! and it would be great if some reincarnation of him would come again. we need some witty cartoons! he was the inventor of the "zé povinho" character, supposed to represent the portuguese people: suffering but quiet, happy with a bit of food and wine.
