Abstract

In 1712 the theatine priests organized in their church in Lisbon an oitavary to commemorate the canonization of Santo André Avelino, and published a booklet relating the celebratory event. Based on the analysis of this improbable source, characterized by an impressive and tactile descriptive detail, in this text we propose to revisit the setting in which the festivity took place and reconstitute, as much as possible, the options that characterized the Church of the Divine Providence in architectural, decorative and even organizational terms, at the time of the celebration.
