Barcelona, La Rambla. Casa Bruno Cuadros
Posted by Paco Díaz (Palma de Mallorca, Spain) on 4 June 2009 in Architecture.
Modernismo. Casa de las sombrillas chinescas.
Edificio premodernista. Construido en 1858, Josep Vilaseca lo reformó en
1883 y le añadió a la fachada una serie de adornos orientalistas, egipcios y barrocos. El elemento más emblemático es el dragón chino de la esquina, que sostiene un farol de hierro del que cuelha un paraguas.

"La maison des parapluies" ! Le dragon (en enseigne) est photographié sur toutes les brochures de tourisme ! Il fait la vedette ! il est devenu presqu'aussi emblèmatique que le lézard de Gaudì au Parc Guël !
Il me semble me rappeler qu'on peut voir aussi non loin, le Theatre del Liceu, et au sol, une fresque de Mirò... Paco, j'adore ton reportage !!
