Description
In the center of a roundabout in downtown Lisbon is the dramatic, complex monument to the Marquis de Pombal, Sebastiao Jose de Carvalho e Melo, "the prime minister responsible for the rebuilding of Lisbon following the Great Earthquake in 1755." In this particular macro, the compelling image of a man arising out of a grave, pushing against the weight of stone, is featured.
