This year being the 120th anniversary of the birth of Armando de Lacerda (1902–1984), we seek to place the renowned Portuguese phonetician in a broader context, among his peers, assistants and other (newly discovered) actors. From the outset, this was one of the main features of the exhibition. Lacerda is portrayed in a number of group photographs taken at the 1st and 3rd International Congresses of Phonetic Sciences held in Amsterdam in 1932 and Ghent in 1938, respectively, which he attended. The exhibition as a whole includes photographs of Giulio Panconcelli-Calzia (1878–1966), Paul Menzerath (1883–1954) and Martin Joos (1907–1978), Lacerda’s mentors, as well as images of some of his disciples and collaborators, such as António Almeida (*1946), Göran Hammarström (1922–2019), María Josefa Canellada (1912–1995), Francis Millet Rogers (1914–1989), Sue Nogueira (*1930) and Peter Strevens (1922–1989).
