Abstract

Resorting to important graphic documents of the time, this paper intends to be an approach to the original "Palácio de Monserrate" in Sintra, built on request of Gerard Devisme and William Beckford. We'll try to analyze its architectural importance as one of the most relevant monuments of XVIII centurie's Sintra, as well its role as activating element of main landscape lines in the area
