poems to enjoy
with pleasure

For lovers of poetry, there can never be enough poems, because there is always more to read, to re-read, and to enjoy with pleasure. This exhibition is a journey to the world of bread, a universal asset, by the hand of Portuguese and international poets. It helps us understand our own reality through the words of others who generously share them in a collection of poems about, or with references to, bread. An exhibition framed within the exhibition of Fernando Pessoa’s writing desk and a rare first edition of Message (Mensagem) at the Museum, making culture and art more accessible to all.
