Alberto, how could you say such a thing? Blasphemy! Even if FN Souza
was irreligious himself.

The home where Souza lived is like any other village home. I think a
State like Goa is very adept at not honouring its own. Whether it is
FN Souza or Frank Moraes (Eugene has rightly pointed out that he
deserves a journalism college in his name) and even Alfred Rose was
long denied a State award on the excuse that he was "not Goa based".

Images (taken on a hot summer day) of the house where Souza grew up
are below. Some pics have  village historian Fr Nascimento Mascarenhas
(currently working on a book on Saligao) in the frame. It's located
near the Green Bar, and I'm sure Albert will recognise this.

Another pic of a Souza painting I ran into while visiting the Embassy
of India in Bonn in 1990 (pre-digital camera days):
