Josep Maria Tamburini

He studied at the Escola de la Llotja with Antoni Caba, then went to Paris, where he worked with Léon Bonnat.

Later, he went to Rome and Naples; coming under the influence of Domenico Morelli and Gioacchino Toma.

After returning to Barcelona, he published articles, reviews and drawings in La Vanguardia and L'Avenç [ca], and began showing his paintings at the Sala Parés.

[1] He initially devoted himself to historical works, but moved away from Realism to a type of Symbolism and developed an interest in the English Pre-Raphaelites.

His works may be seen at the MNAC,[2][3][4] the Galeria de Catalans Il·lustres [ca] and the Biblioteca Museu Víctor Balaguer in Vilanova i la Geltrú, among others.
