TRIOMF ARC
Arch of Triomf of 30 m high with allegorical friezes carved in the stone
The monumental perspective offered by the Arc de Triomf, the Passeig Lluís Companys and the Ciutadella Park was the setting chosen to host the 1888 Universal Exposition. The Arch was the symbolic gateway. Its author, Josep Vilaseca i Casanovas, was inspired by Mudejar art for its construction. The arch is 30 meters high and made of red brick. It is richly decorated with allegorical friezes carved in stone, representing agriculture, industry and commerce, arts and sciences.
