Palácio Lauro Sodré, Art museum in Cidade Velha, Belém, Brazil
The Lauro Sodré Palace features a symmetrical neoclassical design with two stories and a prominent cornice supporting the roof structure.
Governor Manuel Bernardo de Melo e Castro commissioned Italian architect Giuseppe Antonio Landi to design this governmental palace, completed in 1771.
