453 - Tempera, black ink, pencil, and white lead on heavy paper. 210x235 mm. "IMPREMTA" (printing house) at the top margin, "LA RENAIXENSA" (the Renaissance) at the bottom margin, and "ARS PVLCHRA" (figurative art) in the center. Design sketch for what was likely the masthead of the periodical *La Renaixensa*, whose coat of arms is visible in the center. The publication was distributed in Barcelona from February 1, 1871, to May 9, 1905. It was initially published every two weeks, but became a daily in 1881. The magazine, originally conceived as a popular literature journal, soon took on a political tone to give voice to the controversies within Catalan society. Following the emergence of the Lliga Regionalista and the growing prominence of *La Veu de Catalunya* as a party newspaper, *La Renaixensa* began to face difficulties and eventually ceased publication in 1905. (1) Letter with signs of wear and scattered decorative markings. Residues of adhesive tape on the reverse; overall in good condition.
