Prince Antonio, Princess Christine and Family

Will his death be publicly commemorated by the Brazilian authorities, akin to the death of his brother Dom Luiz Gastão (then head of the family) two years ago which was marked with one day of official mourning?

I am not sure. Two years ago, Brazil had a right-wing president (Bolsonaro) who had good relations with the imperial family. Now Brazil has a leftist president (Lula) who is not sympathetic to the monarchists.

By the way, none of the major national Brazilian newspapers has reported the passing of Dom Antônio yet on their websites (at least not on the front pages).

His wake will be held at the church of the Imperial Brotherhood of Our Lady of Glory of Outeiro.
