The hypothesis of this thesis is that pictorialism is an aesthetic formula that is frequently updated in Brazilian culture. Observing the peculiarities of pictorialism in Brazil, I tried to locate the moments, since the national artistic tradition forged in the 19th century, when this tendency of photography showed itself. To carry out this exercise, I used the concept of anachronism in an empirical way: in the clash between different genres and languages and in different contexts and historical periods, an aesthetic formula hidden in the history of Brazilian photography - pictorialism - emerged. Throughout the work, becomes visible that its updates are frequent and occur in different spaces, spaces that would be unimaginable for Brazilian pictorial photographers of the beginning of the 20th century. Thus, from Joaquim Manuel de Macedo's A Moreninha to Moreninha from Geração 80 – and from the tomb paintings of Fayum to the photopints of the sertão do Cariri and from Anna Mariani to JR - I noticed the transit and the mutation of pictorialism between different temporalities and artistic genres to prove its survival - althought inverted - in mass culture and contemporary art.
