About the piece
Painted in 1897 by Ramon Casas, this work captures the energy and scale of the Corpus Christi procession leaving the Santa Maria del Mar church in Barcelona. The artist employs a sophisticated, painterly approach to render the vast sea of figures, top hats, and banners, creating a dynamic snapshot of Catalan social life at the turn of the century. The composition masterfully balances the architectural weight of the church with the fluid movement of the crowd.
