Heart-shaped window at Portuguese sculptor JosĂŠ de Oliveira Ferreira's workshop/home in Miramar, Portugal.
JosĂŠ de Oliveira Ferreira (1883 - 1942) was born in Porto, in the parish of S. Nicolau. He distinguished himself as a sculptor and was considered âa guide for his generation, for the art and humility that characterised himâ.
JosĂŠ de Oliveira Ferreira was apprenticed to the master AntĂłnio Teixeira Lopes while studying at night at the Passos Manuel School of Industrial Design (1895-1898) in Vila Nova de Gaia. He finished his studies at this school and then enrolled at the Escola Portuense de Belas Artes in 1898.
In 1912, he worked on the construction of the workshop-house in Miramar (Vila Nova de Gaia), which he had designed himself, and where he lived and worked from 1913 onwards.
