Eça de Queiroz was one of the most important
Portuguese realism writers. Os Maias, O Crime do
Padre Amaro and A Relíquia are just three of his
many books. He lived during the second half of
the 19th Century, and died in 1900, in Paris. In
addition to being a fantastic writer, he was also
a diplomat, representing Portugal in countries
like Cuba or England. The statue of Eça, situated
in the Chiado area, between the Cais do Sodré and
the Bairro Alto, shows the writer holding a nude
woman that symbolically represents the "truth."
This piece is a bronze replica of the original
sculpture that was removed after several acts of
vandalism almost completely destroyed it

R. do Alecrim
The Chiado is located between the neighbourhoods
of Bairro Alto and Baixa Pombalina. It is a
traditional shopping area that mixes old and
modern commercial establishments. The most
well-known café is "A Brasileira", famous for
having had poet Fernando Pessoa among its
customers, and today it is very popular among
tourists
