This
was the first Exhibition I organized on weapons,
back in 1991. It was a two way
Project .
First we would show the Portuguese Armory Exhibition, aiming to encompass the
length of Portuguese History since its Foundation in the Early 12th. century
until recent times. Then the second part of the Project was to show the
History of Weaponry from China.
If I was successful in showing the types of weaponry from
Portugal to a certain degree, as many swords were not able to make it, the
Chinese Weaponry was a total failure, as I could not find a comprehensive
number of pieces to make an Exhibition...
The present online Exhibition is an attempt to bring a
part of the
weapons on the show to be shared with you, and it is classified as it was:
Swords, then Daggers, then Halberds and so forth. There's not much space
left for longer specifications which I deem not necessary anyway since
images speak for themselves.
