Gaspar Camps i Junyent
Igualada (1874) - Barcelona (1942)
He was educated at La Llotja, the Barcelona School of Fine Arts, and obtained a grant to study in Paris from 1892 to 1895, where he was a pupil of Benjamin Constant and Jean-Paul Laurens.
During the following years he contributed drawings to several magazines, such as Álbum Salón, and some years later for Pluma y Lápiz. He subsequently returned to Paris to work as artistic director with Casa Sirvent, where he repeated the same subjects of female figures with a lot of decoration.
He is known as "the Catalan Mucha" due to his great similarities with the Czech artist.
