The College of Santo Antão in Lisbon was a famous educational center of the Jesuits where public mathematical courses were held from 1590 to 1759. The so-called Mathematics Hall of the college was created in the 18th century. There are several pictures related to mathematics on its walls. The authors try to interpret the most significant fragments and to understand how these pictures could be concerned with the learning process of that time.
