Jaume Balmes. Quin llegat, avui?
Descripción / Resumen (Catalán): Quan un entra al Saló Sant Jordi del Palau de la Generalitat, si alça el cap, és molt probable que la primera figura que vegi pintada al sostre sigui la de Balmes. També hi són les de Torras i Bages (enfrontada a la de Balmes), Llorens i Barba, Menéndez Pelayo, etcètera. Però la de Balmes destaca pel lloc que ocupa.

When he returned to painting in 1973 it was to begin on the series of intensely observed portraits, nudes and still lifes for which he is now known worldwide.
