Tarsila do Amaral was born on September 1st, 1886, in the town of Capivari, in the interior of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. She was the daughter of José Estanislau do Amaral and Lydia Dias de Aguiar do Amaral. Tarsila’s father was a wealthy landowner, and she spent her childhood on her father’s farms. Later she studied at Colégio Sion, a convent school in São Paulo, and then in Barcelona, Spain, where she produced her first painting Sagrado Coração de Jesus (Sacred Heart of Jesus) in 1904. Upon returning to Brazil, Tarsila married André Teixeira Pinto, and gave birth to her only child, Dulce.
