Resumo: This article explores the production and transmission of illustrations Candido Portinari made for a North-American edition of Hans Staden's book on sixteenth-century Brazil. Made in 1941, the drawings fell into oblivion for almost sixty years, until their posthumous publication in 1998 in Brazil. The article argues that the destiny of the drawings is symptomatic for the articulation of the cultural memory of the colonial past in Brazil. Based upon the analysis of their critical reception and visual repertoire, it suggests that the drawings diverge from traditional representations of the death of indigenous people by challenging the temporality underlying the national framework of colonial memory

Realizados em 1941, os desenhos caíram em esquecimento por quase sessenta anos até a sua publicação póstuma em 1998 no Brasil. Este artigo argumenta que o destino dos desenhos é sintomático da articulação da memória cultural social do passado colonial brasileiro. Com base na análise da recepção crítica e do repertório visual dos desenhos, sugere que as ilustrações de Portinari divergem de representações tradicionais da morte dos povos indígenas por desafiarem a temporalidade subjacente às molduras nacionais da memória colonial.Universidade de São Paulo.
