Abstract

This work aims to present the study between the Museum and the Capela displacement of the image of Sant'Ana do Massacará in Sergipe, and the establishment of preservation measures in its transfer from the Museum of Sacred Art of São Cristóvão/Se to Capela de Sant 'Ana do Massacara. This work resulted from studies carried out for the development, making it possible to gather information about the Sant'Ana do Massacará chapel, the tradition in maintaining the party, the transfer of images that belonged to the chapel to the Museum of Sacred Art of São Cristóvão in the 1970s, understand the discourses about the study of this devotion that involves the image of Sant'Ana, observing that the study of the museological object in the displacement through museology is important. Therefore, I noticed that the devotion to Sant’Ana is very strong in the family responsible for the party, for this reason, it needs to be preserved so that it doesn’t get lost. For this, it is important to emphasize the awareness of the competent bodies of the city of Carmópolis/Se, about the importance of preservation, carrying out a study and analysis of the museological object in the displacement between the museum and the chapel, highlighting the possible causes of damage that the object may suffer. Over time, if handling continues to be done without taking into account the necessary care to prevent any damage to the object, which may become irreversible. In this way, it is expected that this work can contribute to the considerations that are mentioned, when the object is required to be moved from its museological context to the religious practices of the chapel.
