Framed under glass. Maria Adelaide de Lima Cruz, was a rare Portuguese Art Deco painter with a cosmopolitan, colorful and elegant style from the revue theaters of the 20s and 30s. A child prodigy, at the age of twelve, began as an illustrator in the style of Barradas and Soares, expanding into mural scenography in the old Casino of Estoril in 1935 and at the Portuguese World Exhibition in 1940.
