In the fourth work in the series dedicated to Gaudí’s Casa La Pedrera, an angular perspective of the iconic rooftops that crown this 19th-century Art Nouveau monument is displayed. The composition balances the terrace on the left with neighbouring buildings on the right. In the foreground, a chimney captures the attention, framing the tower that rises majestically behind it, a recurring theme in the series. In the distance, the towers of the Sagrada Familia emerge subtly on the horizon. This painting captures the essence of Gaudí’s undulating forms, evoking movement and endowing the work with a visual richness that highlights the artist’s architectural genius.
