Verger, who was a modest person, had a complex personality that was difficult to understand in its entirety due to the variety of activities he engaged in and the places he had been to. Testimonials have been collected here from friends and colleagues who lived with him in Brazil, Africa and Europe at various times of his life in order to better understand his way of thinking and to portray his personality in the best possible way.

Verger's work is the subject of interest of researchers from diverse fields. In addition to his important photographic work, his written work also attracts the attention of researchers, mainly because of his contributions to knowledge of Afro-Brazilian culture. Therefore, in this section we include some texts resulting from his research, as well as the introduction of his doctoral thesis.
