ACHILLE BATTISTUZZI (Trieste - Barcelona, 1891). "View of Barcelona".1878. Oil on canvas. Signed, dated and located in the lower right corner. Attached to the back a label of Ramoneda & Barrachina. Measurements: 90 x 131 cm; 110 x 151 cm (frame). Achile Battistuzzi was an Italian painter who lived in Barcelona for most of his life, giving the Catalan capital magnificent port and urban views. In the painting shown here, Battistuzzi's mastery of working the space in a scenographic manner is evident, naturally superimposing the mountainous landscape (the Montjuïc area) and the port of Barcelona, which can be glimpsed in the background, criss-crossed with boats. The Reales Atarazanas (Royal Shipyards) divide the seafront and the margins of the city. In this panoramic view, the artist displays his skills as a veduttist and his bold use of light. The rural area with its peasants and the port area with its fishing boats form two parallel realities. Achille Battistuzzi settled in Barcelona around 1866. He specialised in landscape paintings with urban scenes. He was one of those who introduced Venetian Vedutism to Catalonia, following the influences of Canaletto and Guardi. His work "El pla de la Boqueria" is in the collection of the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. Painted around 1873, the work was exhibited at the Universal Exhibition in Barcelona in 1888. The Barcelona History Museum has nine works by the artist, and the Historical Archive of the City of Barcelona holds two oil paintings, two watercolours, two drawings and two engravings. The Maritime Museum of Barcelona holds the canvas entitled "Vista de las Reales Atarazanas de Barcelona y de la Montaña de Montjuïc" (View of the Royal Shipyards of Barcelona and Montjuïc Mountain).

MARTÍ LLAURADÓ MARISCOT (Barcelona, 1903 - 1957). "Girl sleeping". Stone sculpture of Montjuïc. Signed on the left side. Presents marks of use and wear; some chipping. Measurements: 30 x 110 x 45 cm. The sleeping young woman is represented in this sculpture with a veristic intention, seeking in her the beauty that is born not from perfection but from the singularity and fragility of the body at rest. This is a work of quality by Martí Llauradó Mariscot, made with Montjuïc stone, a compact and resistant stone from the mountain of the same name, which has been used over the centuries in important sculptures and constructions in the city of Barcelona, including part of Gaudí's work. The sculptor Martí Llauradó worked during his youth with Joan Borrell and Joan Rebull, from whom he received important influences. In 1929 he made his debut with his first individual exhibition in Barcelona, together with Joan Commeleran. From then on he continued exhibiting his work and taking part in contests, and in 1933 he was awarded in the Exhibition of the Nude of the Artistic Circle of Barcelona. The following year he obtained the first medal at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid. In the post-war period he obtained other important awards in cities such as Seville (for religious art), Madrid and Barcelona, and was invited to participate in two editions of the Venice Biennale. Llauradó was a leading figure of the young generation of postnoucentisme, and tempered the stylized idealism of the noucentistes with an accentuation of realism. He is currently represented at MACBA.
