About the piece

Created around 1890 by Joaquim Vayreda, a key figure in the Olot school, this oil painting depicts a religious or school procession in a rural setting. The artist's signature style is evident in the loose, expressive brushwork and the warm, hazy light that envelops the figures in white, creating a sense of quiet, nostalgic tranquility.
