exhibition "Drawings of the National Museum. Sparks of War (1914-1918)"

In the summer of 1914, Santiago Rusiñol began writing in the “Glossary” that he published in L’Esquella de la Torratxa a series of articles with the title “Sparks of the war”. In these collaborations he did not hesitate to position himself in favor of France, which he identified as the ultimate expression of European art and civilization in the face of the threat of German expansionism. Consisting of a selection of around seventy drawings from the collection of the Cabinet of Drawings and Engravings of the National Museum, the present exhibition reevaluates the heritage wealth of the best public Catalan collection of works on paper. You can consult more information about the exhibition “Drawings of the National Museum. Sparks of war (1914-1918)” on the MNAC website Last update: 07/10/2025
