The Jardim da Cordoaria, also known as the Jardim João Chagas, has a number of fine monuments, including the bronze bust of António Nobre dating from 1926 by sculptor Tomás Costa. António Nobre (1867-1900) was a Portuguese poet who was born in Porto and died there from tuberculosis at the age of 32. The poet’s masterpiece ‘Só’, the only book published in his lifetime, is mentioned on the monument, which has flower bouquets and an allegorical reference to his poetic inspiration.
