A Presença de Emílio Biel no Santuário do Bom Jesus do Monte

Historical analysis reveals the significant role of Emílio Biel as a photographer at the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte in Braga between 1879 and 1880. Through meticulous examination of archival records, including contracts, payment orders, bills of exchange, prints, and photographic views from the Inventory of the Confraternity of Bom Jesus do Monte, researchers uncovered primary sources that illuminate the cultural and artistic context of this period. The study highlights the strict contractual terms imposed on Biel by the Brotherhood's Bureau and provides valuable iconographic evidence for the history of art, offering insights into the unique features and cultural significance of the Sanctuary during this time.
