EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Agustin Querol and Subirats, a renowned Spanish sculptor of the 19th and 20th centuries. Born in Tortosa in 1860, he left an indelible mark on the art world until his passing in Madrid in 1909. Querol's exceptional talent was widely recognized, as evidenced by the numerous accolades he received throughout his career. In 1887, Querol achieved first-class recognition at the prestigious exhibition held in Madrid by the group La Tradicion. His artistic prowess continued to shine with gold medals awarded to him at both Munich exhibitions in 1891 and 1895. In addition, he garnered further acclaim with a gold medal from Vienna's exhibition in 1898. One of his most notable achievements came at the Universal Exhibition of 1888 when Querol secured first prize for his masterpiece titled "Sagunto Suicide". This poignant work demonstrated not only his technical skill but also his ability to evoke deep emotions through sculpture. Captured vertically within this private collection photograph, Agustin Querol stands alongside Santiago Ortega—an unknown figure whose presence adds intrigue to this historical moment. The image serves as a testament to Querol's remarkable contributions to Catalan art history and solidifies his place among esteemed personages of Spanish sculpture.
