Barcelona barely has time to take down the bunting between its rollicking festivals-when there isn't an all night fiesta happening on the street, there's more likely a party on the beach (only ten minutes away) and never any shortage of action in its clubs and bars. Gentler pursuits are also myriad: the city's museums have got it all coverd from Picasso and Miro to perfume and an outstanding aquarium. It's galleries are among the most avant garde...

The collection ranges across topics such as eighteenth-century...

En un momento fundamental de desmantelamiento del Antiguo Régimen y construcción del Estado-nación liberal, este grupo situado...
