The MNAC mixes Modernist painting, sculpture, furniture, etc., pretty freely, which seems appropriate. It was a movement, of sorts, that spilled over every line.

In a display of furniture by Gaudi and his disciple Jujol; Gaudi had few disciples... |

Did not get the title or artist, but liked this |

Loved this one, too, Ramon Casas' Bull (Dead Horse); note
the matador hiding behind the live horse |
|
Pablo Gargallo, Portrait of Picasso, 1913 |
|
Fransesc Masriera, In the Presence of the Lord, 1891;
somehow Klimtish (is that a word?) |
|
Dali's portrait of his father, 1925; they did not agree on art |

Among the domes at MNAC |
|
Picasso's Woman in Hat and Fur Collar, 1937 |

Age of posters..evaporated milk and absinthe...a popular Spanish drink even today
