A unique exhibition totally dedicated to the tile will bring together, for the first time, works from regions and cultures as diverse as the Ottoman Empire,  Persia,  India,  England, Spain, Italy and Flanders, Holland and, of course, Portugal.  The thematic arrangement of works approach issues as the myth of the golden ceramics, the geometry achievements, the importance of heraldry, the value of  Christian mythology, the stylization of nature and the representation of utopia and the daily life.
