The sardine collection by Bordallo Pinheiro results from a collaboration between the earthenware factory of Caldas da Rainha, EGEAC (Lisbon’s Cultural and Animation municipal entity) and Lisbon’s City Council. The original Bordallo Pinheiro sardine, designed in the XIX century, due to its classic three-dimensional nature, became the ideal support for receiving the creative work from EGEAC. Designed by Alberto Faria. Tourists leaving Lisbon aboard cruise ships will pass the building of the Port of Lisbon. And it is in this moment, when they see the city for the last time, basking in the late afternoon sun, that they understand the meaning of the word “saudade”.
