A viagem reverteu-se na série de pinturas intitulada Tropical sketches from Brazil. Autor de biografia controversa, Harro-Harring confeccionou um importante conjunto de obras que revelam aspectos do cotidiano da escravidão no litoral fluminense. O artigo busca compreender como os trabalhos de Esboços tropicais do Brasil estão relacionados às produções literária e polemista de Harring e às políticas antiescravistas britânicas, nos oferecendo condições de compreender o olhar anedótico, pontuado entre uma perspectiva lírica, o estranhamento e o registro documental. Para tanto, realizamos um levantamento documental e revisões biográficas desse artista pouco debatido, bem como, delineamos em qual projeto visual ele estava inserido.Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2020-12-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/article/view/5864310.14393/artc-v22-n41-2020-58643ArtCultura; Vol. 22 No. 41 (2020): ArtCultura; 74-89ArtCultura; Vol. 22 Núm. 41 (2020): ArtCultura; 74-89ArtCultura; v. 22 n. 41 (2020): ArtCultura; 74-892178-3845reponame:ArtCultura (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/article/view/58643/30618Gomes de Oliveira, Emerson Dionisio info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-05-27T16:15:41Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/58643Revistahttp://www.seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/indexPUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/artcultura/oaiakparanhos@uol.com.br||2178-38452178-3845opendoar:2022-05-27T16:15:41ArtCultura (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
