- **Event Description**: Dr Laura Fernández-González, University of LincolnAbout this EventResearch Seminar - Department of Art History and Cultural Practices, University of ManchesterBuilding Early Modern GoaDr Laura Fernández-González, Associate Professor, University of LincolnAbstractChristian architecture in early modern Goa awed visitors at the time; the viceregal Portuguese capital in India boasted up to 100 churches at its peak. The city sits on seven hills, like Lisbon and Rome do, and was known as the ‘Rome of the East’. The city underwent a gradual process of depopulation that started in the seventeenth century, and today only some of its monumental churches and basilicas have survived the passage of time. The literature has chiefly focused on studying the circulation of European architects, patrons and how transregional design trends that originated in Europe were implemented in the city of Goa and the wider region. Scholarship has demonstrated, however, that the Goan baroque developed in parallel terms than other coeval designs and structures elsewhere in the Iberian world, and some key recent attention has been paid to the patronage of the Goan clergy. This paper considerably expands existing literature by exploring the role of Goan makers (artists, architects, and builders) in the building of early modern Goa.Image credits: Interior, Church of Santa Rosario, Old Goa.
