Talk:Pombaline style

Question
Did this style have any influence in Portugal's colonies? Are there any examples in Brazil, Angola, Mozambique etc.? --Mcginnly | Natter 14:23, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Interesting point. The Grove mentions the work of Landi at Belém, Brazil as being (perhaps) influenced by the Pombaline style. It seems a good bet Brazilian neoclassicism owes some sort of debt to Lisbon. Twospoonfuls 17:21, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Palaces
"The construction of new palaces is regulated and unostentatious designs rejected (a very unpopular situation among the aristocracy), allowing for decoration only in the portal." Is this correct: unostentatious designs rejected? "allowing for decoration only in the portal" would imply that ostentatious designs were rejected.
