Jaume Busquets i Mollera (Girona, 1904 - Barcelona, 1968) was a Catalan sculptor and painter of the ''noucentisme'' generation. He was the youngest son of a family of four artist brothers from Girona, Catalonia, Spain.〔Ajuntament de Girona, ''Els Germans Busquets 1917-1941''〕 Busquets was a disciple of Antoni Gaudí. He designed and sculpted the Holy Family ensemble on the Nativity façade of Gaudí's Sagrada Familia Basilica Shrine in Barcelona.〔(Gaudí: SAGRADA FAMÍLIA: Nativity façade )〕 Busquets also designed and sculpted the statue of the Blessed Virgin with Child on the façade of the Girona Cathedral.〔(La Catedral de Girona )〕 == Career == A precocious boy, Busquets went to work, at the age of fifteen, in the Barcelona studio of Darius Vilas. In his final years, Busquets devoted his energies exclusively to sculpture, producing his masterworks, the ''Jesus, Maria i Josep'' ensemble (1958) that forms the centerpiece of Gaudi's Nativity Façade and the ''Mare de Deu'' statue (1962) that adorns the façade of the Girona Cathedral.〔Ajuntament de Girona, ''Els Germans Busquets'' 1917-1941, pp.17-19〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jaume Busquets」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
