notes:

This is the tomb to the knight Mem de Cerveira, limestone, first half of the 16th century, its typology is typically Manueline, characterized by its integration in a wall (south nave) defined by a polilobated arch, with masterly decorated archivolts, the first one with vegetal and phytomorphic motifs and the second one inspired by Renaissance forms. Above there’s another larger polylobated arch that makes the transition to the pilasters, decorated by small columns that flank the tomb and support the corbels and baldachins, forming small niches. Despite some noticeable damage the tomb is very well preserved, it comes from the chapel of S, Bartolomeu, in the church of S, Domingos in Santarem, which no longer exists.

A beautiful piece of Architecture with good tones and contrast,I don't think it would have quite the same impact in colour Luquesio.
Kindest Regards,Brian.
