Description:
Antoni Gaudi is perhaps the best-known artist and architect of the art-nouveau style in Barcelona: the avant-garde, flowing, natural forms that were simply called Modernisme at the time. But the city is filled with superb examples of art nouveau by many other architects -- not least of which, the remarkable building that houses the famous literary cafe Els Quatre Gats, by Josep Puig in Cadafalch; and the vast, colorful Hospital de Saint Pau, by Lluis Domenech in Muntaner.
