The Tower Of Belém In Portugal Paper Model - by Kouichi Kaji

Composed of 84 pieces divided into 20 sheets for printing, this beautiful paper model of the Tower of Belém, in Portugal, was created by Japanese designer and modeler Kouichi Kaji exclusively for the Canon website. 

The Tower of Belém, located in Lisbon, is one of the most iconic landmarks in Portugal and was built between 1514 and 1519 during the reign of Manuel I. 

Originally called the Tower of Saint Vincent, it was designed as a defensive fortification at the entrance to the Tagus River. 

It is an example of Manueline architecture, combining Gothic, Renaissance, and Moorish elements. In 1983, it was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

The Tower of Belém was originally constructed on an island in the middle of the Tagus River. Over time, due to sedimentation and changes in the river's course, it is now located next to the shore. 

On one of its facades, there is a sculpture of a rhinoceros, inspired by the first rhinoceros brought to Europe, which arrived in Lisbon in 1515 and symbolized Portugal's contact with the East.

In addition to its military function, the tower was used as a prison during the 16th and 19th centuries and later as a lighthouse to assist navigation. 

Technically, the Tower of Belém is not considered medieval, as it was built between 1514 and 1519, at the beginning of the modern period. 

The Middle Ages ended around the late 15th century, and the tower belongs to the Renaissance period and the Age of Discoveries. 

Today, the Tower of Belém is a cultural and tourist symbol of Portugal. It is one of the country's most visited monuments, attracting thousands of tourists annually. It serves as a representation of the Age of Portuguese Discoveries and maritime expansion.

Composta de 84 peças divididas em 20 folhas para imprimir, este belo modelo de papel da Torre de Belém, em Potugal, foi criado pelo designer e modelista japonês Kouichi Kaji, exclusivamente para o site da Canon. 

A Torre de Belém, localizada em Lisboa, é um dos marcos mais emblemáticos de Portugal e foi construída entre 1514 e 1519 durante o reinado de Manuel I. 

Originalmente chamada de Torre de São Vicente, foi concebida como uma fortificação defensiva na entrada do rio Tejo. 

É um exemplo da arquitetura manuelina, combinando elementos góticos, renascentistas e mouriscos. Em 1983, foi reconhecida como Patrimônio Mundial pela UNESCO. 

A Torre de Belém foi originalmente construída numa ilha no meio do rio Tejo. Com o tempo, devido ao assoreamento e alterações no curso do rio, ela agora está junto à margem. 

Em uma das fachadas há uma escultura de um rinoceronte, inspirada no primeiro rinoceronte trazido para a Europa, que chegou a Lisboa em 1515 e simbolizava o contato português com o Oriente. 

Além de sua função militar, a torre foi usada como prisão durante os séculos XVI e XIX e mais tarde como um farol para ajudar na navegação. 

Tecnicamente, a Torre de Belém não é considerada medieval, pois foi construída entre 1514 e 1519, já no início do período moderno. 

A Idade Média terminou por volta do final do século XV, e a torre pertence ao período do Renascimento e da era dos Descobrimentos. 

Hoje em dia, a Torre de Belém é um símbolo cultural e turístico de Portugal. É um dos monumentos mais visitados do país, atraindo milhares de turistas anualmente. Serve como uma representação da era das grandes navegações portuguesas e da expansão marítima.

An Easy-To-Build Fishing Cutter Paper Model - by Internationales Maritimes Museum Hamburg

This easy-to-build paper model of a Fishing Cutter is offered by Internationales Maritimes Museum Hamburg, a German website. I want to say thanks to my new friend Gonçalo Mendes. Gonçalo is a finalist student of architecture in Portugal and just like me, his first experiences with papercraft were through youth magazines or school book coverbacks, since there was no Internet at the time. He even designed and assembled his own models and then, With the advent of the Internet, began to "collect" models found on the network.

Este modelo de papel bem fácil de montar de um Barco Pesqueiro é oferecido pelo site Internationales Maritimes Museum Hamburg, da Alemanha. Eu gostaria de agradecer ao meu novo amigo Gonçalo Mendes. Gonçalo é um estudante finalista de arquitetura em Portugal e assim como eu, suas primeiras experiências com o papelmodelismo se deram através de revistas juvenis ou contracapas de cadernos escolares, já que não havia Internet na época. Ele chegou a desenhar e montar seus próprios modelos e depois, com o advento da Internet, começou a "colecionar" modelos encontrados na rede.

About the Ephemeral Museum:

I "am in the paper modeling" since 2005, although I've had contact with paper models from my childhood in the 1970s, via magazines that were sold sporadically in newsagents. I remember magazines with houses to build and dioramas/playsets of airports, western forts, nativity scenes and the like. With the advent of the internet what happened was simply a revival of the papercraft hobby for me and many other people of my generation. Today I am opening a new session here on the blog, the Ephemeral Museum , which is a place where I will show some of the models that I built all these years. I would also like this to be a space where all modelers friends could show their work, so if anyone wants to participate in this "museum", just send photos of your work and a few words, if you want, to the e-mail:

mautherous@gmail.com

All who submit their work will be published, without exceptions.


Eu "estou no papelmodelismo" desde 2005, embora eu já tivesse contato com modelos de papel desde minha infância, nos anos 1970, via revistas que eram vendidas esporadicamente em bancas de jornal. Lembro que haviam revistas com casas para montar e dioramas/playsets de aeroportos, fortes-apache, presépios e coisas do tipo. Com o advento da internet o que houve foi simplesmente um renascimento do hobby do papelmodelismo para mim e muitas outras pessoas de minha geração. Hoje eu estou inaugurando uma nova sessão aqui no blog, o Ephemeral Museum, que é um lugar aonde irei mostrar alguns dos modelos que eu construí em todos estes anos. Também gostaria que esse fosse um espaço aonde todos os amigos modelistas pudessem mostrar seus trabalhos, sendo assim, se alguém quiser participar deste "museu", basta mandar fotos de seu trabalho e algumas palavras para o e-mail abaixo:

mautherous@gmail.com

Todos que enviarem seus trabalhos serão publicados, sem exceções.
