- Summary:
- "This book has the purpose of presenting to the reader the art collections of the Governmental palaces of the State Government of São Paulo and their icons works of art, and to contribute to the knowledge of facts that shaped the cultural context of the periods of their acquisitions. It also examines the notion of taste that selected the 4 thousand works that inhabit the palaces. Influenced by the economic and social conditions and by political power, the choice of pieces reflects the usage and customs of that time, the tendencies and trends of fashion, the critical spirit and the artistic and cultural panorama of that period and of the corresponding administration of the palaces. [...] The acquisition policy accumulated in the decade of the 1970, a representative ensemble, especially of Brazilian artists, together with rare pieces of Brazilian and European decorative arts" --Page [15],
