Arcadi Mas i Fondevila, or Fontdevila (12 November 1852 in Barcelona – 31 January 1934 in Sitges), was a Catalan painter and graphic artist.
His father recognized his artistic talent at an early age and enrolled him at the Escola de la Llotja, where he studied with Claudi Lorenzale and Antoni Caba.
It was called "Pel juny la falç al puny" (In June with Sickle in Hand) and was bought the following year by King Alfonso XII.
[1] He spent ten years there, visiting several major art centers and sending works home for display at the Sala Parés.
In 1913, thanks to a donation from Charles Deering, a patron from America, he was able to decorate the tympanum of the portal of Saint Catherine at the parish church in Sitges.
