Francisco de Aquino Correia (April 2, 1885 – March 22, 1956) was a Brazilian Catholic priest, poet, and politician.^[1] He was the tenth archbishop of Cuiabá, president (governor) of the state of Mato Grosso^A from 1918 to 1922, and a leading cultural figure of the state in the early 20th century. Aquino Correia was an accomplished poet and writer and became the first citizen of Mato Grosso native to belong to the Brazilian Academy of Letters. He was also one of the founding members of the Mato Grosso Academy of Letters (Academia Mato-grossense de Letras) and the Mato Grosso Historical and Geographical Institute (Instituto Histórico e Geográfico de Mato Grosso).^[2]^[3]

Aquino Correia was instrumental in the construction of the Eucharistic Shrine of Our Lady of Good Delivery, a Neogothic church resembling the Notre Dame in Paris, but not other structures in the city. It sits above the Historic Center of Cuiabá, is visible from many points in the city, and became a landmark from its inception.^[4]^[5]

Aquino Correia was popularly known as "a genius and a saint" (um gênio e um santo) for his contributions to Mato Grosso; at the same time, he was criticized for his handling of land use and public works as governor of the state. Aquino Correia became an associate of president Getúlio Vargas (1930–1945) and was sympathetic to the Estado Novo (1937–1946); he represented the Catholic church in events of the Vargas regime and used his influence to solidify the relationship between the Catholic Church and the Brazilian state.^[2]^[3]^[6]
