Llorenç Reixac and Joan Lledó: Remarks on their Intervention in the Cloister of the Cathedral of Barcelona

Abstract

The wealth of iconographic and stylistic features of the sculptures in the galleries of the cloister of the Cathedral of Barcelona is unquestionable. The duration of the works allowed the participation of artists from various origins and professional backgrounds. In this study, we focus our attention on a group of sculptural works located in the western pillars of the north side of the cloister, linking them to several entries registered in the Llibres de l’Obra kept in the Chapterhouse Archive. The connection between these reliefs and the sculptor Llorenç Reixac, assisted by Joan Lledó, is more than likely.
