Photographer’s Note

Sanctuary Bom Jesus do Monte close to the city of Braga. Sanctuary stands 400 metres above see level, and its well designed, sober neo-cassical lines are universally admired. At the top of stairway, in front of the fine Church of Bom Jesus, are eight imposing statues of people who took part in the condemnation of Jesus, Annas, Caiaphas, Herod and Pilate. The church itself, completed in 1811, is the work of the famous Braga architect Carlos Amarante.
