Casa Bocage presents the life and work of Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage, who lived from 1765 to 1805. Its exhibition connects literature, biography and period. The memorial function does not establish that every part of the present house survives from the poet's lifetime.
Connect the exhibition's words with the house on the street, while distinguishing memorial narrative from the building's dating.
