Frenchman Jacques van de Beuque was inspired by his love for his adoptive country, prompting him to establish the Museu Casa do Pontal. A short drive here will be rewarded with one of the most important and diverse collections of Brazilian folk art. You’ll get a glimpse into the lives of simple people and their art, creativity, humor, and poetry—between the poles of symbolism and reality, of holy and secular.
