Resumo(s)
En los jardines del palacio del sigo XVII, propiedad del Estado Español, que alberga su embajada en
Lisboa, es posible apreciar un notable conjunto – aunque no homogéneo, ya que es cronológicamente diversificado
(siglos XVII y XVIII) y también con distintas proveniencias (Génova y probablemente Roma) – de
obras de escultura barroca italiana.
D. Luís Lobo de la Silveira (1640–1706) y D. Rodrigo da Silveira Silva e Teles (1663–1735), respectivamente
2º y 3º condes de Sarzedas, propietarios del palacio durante el siglo XVII y primeras décadas del
XVIII, habrán sido los responsables del encargo de estas piezas, de las cuales hoy sobreviven las siguientes:
tres fuentes localizadas en el jardín superior, una estatua de Hércules (perteneciente a una antigua fuente)
y además cuatro figuras (de carácter mitológico o alegórico) en el patio. Estas cuatro últimas estatuas en
particular son de especial importancia, una vez que enriquecen el panorama de la escultura italiana importada
por agentes portugueses en el barroco y prueban la existencia en Portugal (y concretamente en los jardines
del palacio de la embajada de España) de obras del escultor genovés Bernardo Schiaffino
(1678–1725), un hecho hasta aquí desconocido por la historiografía del arte portugués y extranjero.
In the gardens of the seventeenth century palace, property of the kingdom of Spain, in which is the Spanish embassy in Lisbon, we can observe a group —although not an homogeneous one, for the different dates and geographical origins (Genoa and eventually Rome)— of Italian baroque sculpture. D. Luís Lobo da Silveira (1640-1706) and D. Rodrigo da Silveira Silva e Teles (1663-1735), second and third counts of Sarzedas, owners of the palace in the 17th century and first decades of 18th century, were almost certainly the commissioners of this works, that today still remain in the property: three fountains (in the upper garden), a statue of Hercules (that belonged to another ancient fountain) and four (allegorical or mythological) statues in the yard. These last four statues in particular, assume a special importance because they enrich the panorama of Italian sculpture imported to Portugal in the baroque period and they prove the existence of works by the Genoese sculptor Bernardo Schiaffino (1678-1725) in Portugal, fact that remained unknown until now.
