Around Granollers

RAMÓN MARTÍ ALSINA (1826-1894)

Catalonia, 1870.

Charcoal and chalk on laid paper.

Dated: “Cercanias de Granollers / 11 September 1870” in the lower right corner. In the middle of that year, the city of Barcelona suffered a strong plague epidemic that forced the artist to go to the Vallés and capture its landscapes.

Testamentary seal signed by Richard Martí Aguiló.
