Notes compiled by William Morgan Kinsey (1788–1851) in the course of his field-trip to Portugal and in preparation for his book ‘Portugal Illustrated’ (1829).
The file includes the manuscript music score of a modinha (popular love-song), ‘Nos momentos em que penso na tua ingratidão’ (author, composer and date unknown), a pencil sketch of ‘the casement or Jealousy in which the Spanish wives were accustomed to sit & play the guitar’, and an incomplete sketch in pencil and ink of the tracery and stained glass of a church window (location and origin unknown but depicting Christ in majesty flanked by Saints Peter and Paul).
One set of notes has been made on the reverse of a printed copy of ‘Undächtiges Gebeth zu der Wunderthäthigen Bildniß Maria zum Schnee auf dem Rigyberge’ (‘Devotional Prayer to the Miraculous Image of Mary Amid the Snows on the Rigiberg’.)
