el nuevo libro verde de barcelona

1848/12/21

Richard Ford (1855). A handbook for travellers in Spain. London: John Murray.  [more]
Dec. 21 is the fair of Barcelona, and is frequented by the peasantry from far. Here the artist will sketch the pretty payesas and their mocados and holiday dress: the Rambla is then filled with men and turkeys, and the Bocaria, Call, Platería, and Moncada streets with booths and purchasers.
