"A synthesis of the events that shaped our civil and political society is represented by the Carlos Costa Pinto Museum - part of our cultural heritage.
The museums' collection has contributed immensely to the interpretation of our true history, including the period of slavery, and of the harmonious relationship that exists between the dominant classes and other segments of society that make up the heart and mind of Brazil today. Through elegant pieces of jewelry, porcelain, crystal, ivory and silver, our museum exhibits a rich picture of the past, for Brazil and the world to see. This treasures should not be overlooked; it should be regarded mainly as a wealth of information that will confirm or remake the events of history." excerpt from the foreword by António Carlos Magalhães.
