Emperor Don Pedro II himself was a great enthusiast and dedicated his collection of over 25 thousand photos to his wife, the Neapolitan Teresa of the House of Bourbon.

The extensive movement around the country by the photographers gave us extraordinary pictures of Brazil\u2019s interior, from the Amazon rainforest to the Rio Grande do Sul. Even though some of them took part in grand exhibitions, including international, they did not always obtain adequate recognition. Our book aims to remember and honour them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Italian Ambassador in Brasilia, Francesco Azzarello and the Director of the Italian Cultural Institute in Rio de Janeiro, Livia Raponi will present the book \u201cItalians behind the camera.
