Episode 93: The woodcuts

There are eight woodcuts by the architect Miguel Ventura Terra, published in 1916, showing the school’s facilities on a plot of land next to the current Portuguese Parliament, in Lisbon. Due to a series of events, the work commissioned by Alfredo Bensaúde, Técnico’s first director, never happened. More than a decade later, Técnico saw its building rise in Alameda, in a project designed by Porfírio Pardal Monteiro.
