By Patricio Dugnani

De forma surpreendente e inédita, esta obra analisa os 37 painéis de azulejos do claustro da Igreja de São Francisco da Bahia, e, assim, preenche a lacuna existente na vasta bibliografia a respeito da azulejaria portuguesa no Brasil. Os enigmáticos painéis com temas mitológicos e herméticos seduzem pela plasticidade barroca e pelos segredos neles contidos – que agora são revelados. O leitor é conduzido por meio dos mistérios da criação das cenas “traduzidas” por Otto van Veen. O método iconográfico de Erwin Panofsky auxilia na interpretação desse presente de D. João V aos franciscanos baianos. O ocultamento da verdade aguça o esclarecimento daquele período interpolado pelos poderes da Igreja, do Estado e dos filósofos na busca de conjugação entre paganismo, cristianismo e hermetismo.
