Resumo

This article examines the visit of António de Almeida to the 1922 International Centennial Exhibition in Rio de Janeiro as a building block of the mythology of traditional Portuguese culture as a pillar of nation state imaginary in modern Brazil. Rather than focusing on the failure the Portuguese government to negotiate a commercial treaty with Brazil, it shows that this visit had cultural consequences in its promotion of a lusophile view of Brazilian history and culture.
