Descrição: The article examines the appropriation of nineteenth-century scientific illustrator’s works – produced during the Langsdorff expedition (1825-1829) – by Afonso d’Escragnolle Taunay (1876-1958) during his time as director of the Museu Paulista in São Paulo (Brazil) and of the Museu Republicano Convenção de Itu, an extension of the Museu Paulista. Afonso d’Escragnolle Taunay, museum director between 1917 and 1945, while organizing exhibition rooms dedicated to the monsoons – river expeditions during the eighteenth and early nineteenth century – not only darkened the Langsdorff expedition’s events portrayed by the scientific illustrators, but has also contributed to a doubtful association between monsoons and bandeirantes – expeditions for colonial exploration during the seventeenth and eighteenth century – two movements whose characters, itineraries and objectives were different. This association is a hypothesis raised by several authors, namely regarding an exhibition inaugurated in 1929 at the Museu Paulista. However, this article envisages a more general view, examining the monsoons representation during Afonso d’Escragnolle Taunay management in the two museums, in particular the two exhibitions in the Museu Paulista dedicated to the monsoons – A-9 (1929) and B-4 (1944) – and at the Museu Republicano Convenção de Itu the tiles at the entrance of this museum. In the three cases, it is analysed how the works of nineteenth-century illustrators such as Hercule Florence (1804-1879) and Aimé-Adrien Taunay (1803-1828) were appropriate, and in what context, for the representation of the monsoons.
