Co-edition with
Editorial Efadós

At the time of the War of the Spanish Succession, Barcelona attracted a great deal of public attention from all over Europe. Plans and maps made for military use abounded, alongside views of the city, close-ups of its details and illustrations of the events that took place there. The best artists and engravers competed to produce gazettes, almanacs, engravings of sieges and other depictions of war. The result? An unknown, ever-living city that fluctuates between the splendour of the court and the poverty and hunger of the siege: Barcelona in 1714.
