António Soares dos Reis (1847-1889)"The artist in infancy"Carrara marble sculpture Signed and dated 187770x40x29 cm Special Notes:António Soares dos ReisBorn on 14 October 1847 in the parish of S. Cristóvão de Mafamude in Vila Nova de Gaia, António Soares dos Reis came from a humble family. One day, either because he saw his drawings or small sculptures, or because António had drawn on the whitewashed walls of his house, his neighbor, Diogo de Macedo found him well suited for the Fine Arts. From childhood to the last day of his life, his existence was doomed by sadness and depression. Taciturn, neurasthenic, dejected, all these adjectives are recurrently used to narrate the great sculptor until they revert to an irrefutable truth. Apparently, the reality was a little different and the depression from which he suffered was attributed to him by time and not by the truth. He was a man with some sense of humor (good or bad, that's questionable). He liked to party with friends, sing, play the guitar and games with those closest to him, to make a good joke and he knew how to accept the ones that were about him. There were only two topics he didn't like to talk about: religion and politics. He was a Christian and a Catholic – as he affirmed at the time of his death – but he was almost indifferent to the religious cults, theories and dogmas of the church. He recognized all beliefs and was against anything that restricted or curtailed freedom of conscience and the right of opinion. In political matters, despite having a great and spontaneous aversion to it, he followed the same order of ideas and the same principles of freedom, justice and morality. But life was not just work and in the early 1880s the sculptor fell in love with the young Amélia de Macedo, granddaughter of Diogo de Macedo and the marriage took place on July 15, 1885, just four years before his suicide. In 1888, he left Lisbon – where he had learned that Elisa Leech did not approve of the bust she had made of herself – and returned to Gaia to write a letter to the Porto Academy of Fine Arts, dated July 2, to manifest the intention of leaving the regency of the chair of sculpture. At the beginning of 1889, his illness showed signs of worsening, and he began to suffer from great mental agitation and irritability. Constantly isolated, there is an apparent improvement and on February 15th he meets his friends to present his project for Monumento ao Infante D. Henrique. The next morning, he got up and went to give some touches to the work he was working on at the time, the Busto de Fontes Pereira de Melo for the headquarters of the Porto Commercial Association. Shortly thereafter, his wife heard a bang in the ground-floor room, similar to a detonation, and ran to see what was going on, where she found her husband, standing, cleaning his pistol and justifying that if he had been distracted and had accidentally shot. After that, he went to his office, on one of the walls he wrote “Sou cristão, porém nestas condições a vida para mim é insuportável. Peço perdão a quem ofendi injustamente, mas não perdoo, a quem me fez mal”, and shot himself in the head.
