Steve,

If I'm not wrong this building is CASA BATLLO,

You're right Lluis, as so often :-)
Thanks for finding the background information for Steve.
I found a 'similar' view from the pointer you offered

Miha, you might now understand a little what it looked like before I

philumixed it.

My delirium as Marc aptly called it :

a rich catalan industrial familly, they had a very big factory, now

in the center of Barcelona is used as a High Enginyery School where I

was when I was on the University, this operate as High School at

least from the 50's, now is also there the Photography School of

Barcelona and other artistic activities.

Casa Batllo is in the center of Barcelona, it is a really nice

building, on the late 80's was purchased by Japan investors, now it

belongs at the Catalonian Gouvernement.

Hi Philippe!

Are you born in Reus like Gaudi?, this picture is "genial",

atonishing, I can't say in English (il mérite tout la

considération de Gaudi en persone). I recognise the place. It is a

great picture.

You will consider fun that on this building it was, maybe 25 or 30

years ago several offices etc.., I remember that it was a Medical

Analytic office ("blood analyses") and I was going there, it was a

building for normal use, now it deserves to be a museum.
