Description: Barcelona, SPAIN - Triumphal Arch & Palace of Justice - trollies: The grand edifice, constructed between 1887-98, is a collaborative work of renowned architects Domènech Estapà and Enric Sagnier, who, although not as famous as Antoni Gaudi, have left their mark on Barcelona's architectural landscape. Sagnier's versatile style encompassed elements of Neo-Baroque, Neo-Gothic, and Modernista, allowing him to adapt his designs to suit each unique structure. The palace showcases a monumental style, distinguished by eight domes reminiscent of Northern European architecture and adorned with intricate sculptural details on its facades. The ornate decoration combines classical motifs with modernist elements. Welcoming visitors through a portico and staircase, the main entrance leads to a well-lit vestibule featuring a vibrant stained glass skylight. The arch of the portico proudly displays the engraved name of the building, topped by a sculptural masterpiece by Agustí Querol depicting Moses and the Tablets of the Law. Inside, the building showcases impressive mural paintings by Josep M. Sert from 1908. An exceptional feat of engineering, the interior structure, designed by engineer Joan Torras Guardiola, stands out with its well-organized, luminous, and spacious areas, captivating the eye and adding a touch of modernity to the overall architectural ensemble. The Arc de Triomf is a triumphal arch in the city of Barcelona in Catalonia, Spain. It was built by architect Josep Vilaseca I Casanovas as the main access gate for the 1888 Barcelona World Fair. The arch crosses over the wide central promenade of the Passeig de Lluís Companys, leading to the Ciutadella Park that now occupies the site of the world fair. It is located at the northern end of the promenade, facing the Passeig de Sant Joan. This Divided Back Era (1907-15) postcard is in good condition.
