In a 1920 photo, with the Sagrada Familia in the background, we see two friends walking. One of them is Llu\u00eds Milet, composer of music, and the other, next to him, Antoni Gaud\u00ed, hiding his face with his hat. Actually, that day two snapshots were taken. In the second, you can see the face of the architect, although only in profile and with the hat on (1)<\/p>\n

In any case, both gestures say a lot about the personality of the architect, a reserved genius, no friend of portraits. For this reason so few images of him are known. However, few do not mean any. Today we have selected some to discover the genius under the hat, or profile…<\/p>\n

1878: I am already an architect<\/strong><\/p>\n

On March 15, 1878, Gaud\u00ed finished his studies. He was twenty-six years old. He needed a photograph. It was the first one he had ever taken. The author, Pablo Audouard, was a prestigious portrait painter of the time. Upon obtaining the degree, Gaud\u00ed, with his usual sense of humor, commented to his friend the sculptor Lloren\u00e7 Matamala: “Lloren\u00e7, they say I’m already an architect.” Forty-eight years later, the son of this same friend, also a sculptor, would be in charge of obtaining his mortuary mastegu\u00e9s, but for that, there was still a long way to go. A promising career opened up before that young graduate…<\/p>\n

1883: Gaud\u00ed, on excursion<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two years before finishing his degree, that is, in 1876, Gaud\u00ed was already a member of the Catalan Association of Scientific Excursions, becoming one of the most puppy members of the institution. Another prominent partner, the poet Jacint Verdaguer, for example, was seven years older.<\/p>\n

Of all the excursions in which they participated, one stands out that took place on June 17, 1883. That day, Gaud\u00ed and Verdaguer coincided in Banyuls and Elna, on an excursion that wanted to twin the literati of Catalonia with those of Roussillon. They were accompanied by great personalities of the time, such as the painter Alexandre de Riquer and the writers V\u00edctor Balaguer, Angel Guimer\u00e0 and Narc\u00eds Oller. The excursion was complemented by a spectacular reception, a sumptuous banquet and different literary sessions. In one of them, Verdaguer read a fragment of his poem Canig\u00f3, in the shelter of the inspiring atmosphere of the cloister of Elna. A graphic document has survived from that day. It is easy to discover Gaud\u00ed, he is the only one who does not look at the camera. Indeed, the promising architect appears in profile, looking at Verdaguer, in the center of the image (2) A few months after this photograph, in November 1883, Gaud\u00ed will join the project that will occupy him for the rest of his life: the Sagrada Familia.<\/p>\n

1888: Gaud\u00ed bald…<\/strong><\/p>\n

When -and why- did Gaud\u00ed decide to cut his hair? We do not know, but we see it in the official photo of the card to access the universal exhibition of 1888. Once again, we have an image thanks to an official procedure, and not to the will of the person portrayed. At that time, Gaud\u00ed began to be a well-known architect, with important works in his portfolio. Among others, the Matar\u00f3 Cooperative, Casa Vicens, El Capricho, Palau G\u00fcell, the Episcopal Palace of Astorga, and, of course, the Sagrada Familia, a project that, as we have already said, had assumed in 1883.<\/p>\n

In Astorga, Gaud\u00ed will have long conversations with Bishop Joan Grau, also born in Reus and friend of his before. In 1888, the year of the photo of Gaud\u00ed bald, Joan Grau bought the land of Bellesguard, which at that time only occupied the ruins of the old palace of King Martin. Unfortunately, shortly after, the bishop died suddenly and the construction of Torre Bellesguard will still have to wait more than a decade.<\/p>\n

1892\/93: A \u201cpallasso\u201d portraitist enters the scene…<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1892, a young man born in Tarragona, like many of Gaud\u00ed’s collaborators, entered the Sagrada Fam\u00edlia as an apprentice. As little discipline demonstrated in the studies, his father, to correct it, approached the teacher to make his son a person with trade.<\/p>\n

For a time, he became a good delineator, but, rebellious in nature, he soon flew from the nest and became a very popular illustrator and caricaturist. That apprentice was called Ricard Opisso, and, despite frequenting the bohemian and libertine environments of the city, which Gaud\u00ed disliked so much, both professed great affection (3). The best proof of this curious relationship is the set of snapshots of Gaud\u00ed\u2019s personal life made by Opisso (4) For example, this one where we see Gaud\u00ed\u2019s father and niece in the company of Dr. Torras i Bages, bishop of enormous social influence, great friend of Gaud\u00ed, and the person who introduced him to the Catholic circles of the modernist period.<\/p>\n

1894: Gaud\u00ed about to die…<\/strong><\/p>\n

As a young man, Gaud\u00ed was an elegant young man and, according to some authors, even a little anticlerical. For reasons that are still subject to debate, all this will change with age, adopting ideas and increasingly spiritual habits.<\/p>\n

During Easter, at 1894, this conversion led him to fast so extreme that he was about to die of starvation. Torras i Bages himself exhorted him to leave his rigorous attitude so that God\u2019s design for him was another: to dedicate himself body and soul to the Temple of the Sagrada Familia. Thanks to Opisso, the apprentice d\u00edscol, we have an image of this chapter so transcendental in the life of the architect, although, as was usual in the cartoonist, with a comic air.<\/p>\n

1900: Trapped in fragantium…<\/strong><\/p>\n

As we see, where the cameras of the photographers did not arrive, the pencil of Opisso did. In 1900, the year Gaud\u00ed was hired to build Torre Bellesguard, the future caricaturist, surprised his mentor, and made him a quick portrait, which he entitled \u201cGaud\u00ed working in the Sagrada Familia workshop\u201d. An image that no one else got. He will repeat the snapshot twice more, and, in one of them, Opisso himself will be portrayed next to Gaud\u00ed in the form of a buffoon (4).<\/p>\n

1902: The miracle of two painted portraits<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the beginning of the works of Torre Bellesguard, another friend of Gaud\u00ed worked a greater miracle, although that of Opisso. And the miracle are the only pictorial portraits of the architect in life.<\/p>\n

The author was Joan Llimona, brother of the sculptor Josep Llimona, one of the main collaborators of Gaud\u00ed in the Sagrada Familia. Like the architect, the work of this painter was influenced by a strong religiousness. Both were members of the Cercle de Sant Lluc, an association supervised by Bishop Torras i Bagu\u00e9s and of which the Figueras were part, the family that had hired Gaud\u00ed to build Torre Bellesguard. In these paintings, Joan Llimona shows Sant Felip Neri with the face of Gaud\u00ed (see: \u201cGaud\u00ed already \u201cappeared as a saint living\u201d<\/a>)<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

1904: Gaud\u00ed, smoking a pure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every summer, the Gaud\u00ed went up to the monastery of Montserrat to visit a common friend, Doctor Santal\u00f3. The architect felt a deep veneration for the Moreneta, a virgin very present in Bellesguard (see: devotion and history) The photo we show now, one of the best known of Gaud\u00ed, was obtained during one of these summer excursions. In the image we see Gaud\u00ed (in the background, smoking a puro and with a hat), his father (center), his niece Rosa, and Doctor Santal\u00f3, another great friend of the architect.<\/p>\n

In short, the few images of Gaud\u00ed that they conserve are the result of his condition as an architect, such as the youth card, the result of a legal procedure. Among the exceptions, it is worth highlighting this image of the excursion to Montserrat, which show the teacher in a “leisure” situation, and the snapshots stolen by two of his friends, Opisso and Llimona, the only ones where he appears in “unofficial” situations. \u00a0There are some more. We will discover them next Friday, when we will continue our route through the portraits of the genius under the hat…<\/p>\n
