Beautiful wall art depicting Lisbon's Tram 28, made from paper quilling by Cândida Conde Miranda: A small piece of art combining traditional techniques, Portuguese culture, and modernity.

What I like

  • The extraordinary mastery of the quilling technique employed by Cândida, who creates incredibly detailed and meticulous objects.
  • The artistic and modern reinterpretation of Portuguese cultural icons.

Please note, this artwork is a unique piece handmade by Cândida Conde Miranda. The artwork you receive will be as close as possible to the example shown here, but some small details may differ.

About the quilling technique.

The quilling technique, also known as paper filigree or quilling art, is a fairly old technique dating back to the Renaissance in France. This technique was then commonly used in the making of reliquary panels.

About Electrico 28

Lisbon's Tram 28 connects Martim Moniz to Campo Ourique. This is quite ordinary, but it is the busiest tram because it passes through the tourist districts of Baixa, Alfama, and then Graca, making it the most authentic way to visit Lisbon.
