Geocache Description:


In the bronze statue with about 4 feet tall, designed by Augusto Cid, author primarily known for his work cartoonist, the figure of the discoverer of the century. XV comes dressed at the time and portrayed with strong momentum, a metaphor of determination and courage associated with your personality. The beret, hair and cape fluttering in the wind which in this case seems to actually come from the sea, given the positioning of the work, installed in Restelo, for the alignment of the river Tagus. Faces the blast, the body leaning slightly in that direction is balanced and firmly on a rock tumbled over another, both constituting the plinth of the statue based directly on tour, that comes plastic option reinforce a penchant for realistic aesthetic impact.
AQUI COLOCA O NOME DA FOTO

Na estátua em bronze com cerca de 4 metros de altura, concebida por Augusto Cid, autor essencialmente conhecido pela sua obra cartoonista, a figura do descobridor do séc. XV surge trajada à época e retratada com forte dinamismo, numa metáfora da determinação e da coragem associadas à sua personalidade. A boina, o cabelo e a capa esvoaçam ao sabor do vento que neste caso parece efectivamente provir do mar, dado o posicionamento da obra, instalada no Restelo, relativamente ao alinhamento do rio Tejo. Enfrenta a rajada, inclinando ligeiramente o corpo nessa direcção e equilibra-se com firmeza numa rocha tombada sobre outra, ambas constituindo o plinto da estátua assente directamente sobre passeio, opção plástica que vem reforçar um impacto estético de pendor realista.
