Encompassing the Globe: Portugal, Focus of this Summer's Smithsonian Exhibition Remains a Land to DiscoverIn the Age of Exploration, Portuguese sailors used advances in science and navigation to build the first global trading network. "Encompassing the Globe: Portugal and the World in the 16th and 17th Centuries" explores the artistic achievements that flourished when these sailors exposed new creative techniques and imagery to the world as they transported goods from port to port. The exhibit opened at the Smithsonian Institution on June 24, 2007. The exhibition presents more than 250 objects produced by each of the cultures touched by Portugal's early trade routes. Organized by the Smithsonian Institution's Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, with support from the Ministry of Culture of Portugal and Turismo de Portugal, "Encompassing the Globe" will be on view through Sept. 16, 2007 in Washington DC.
