Francesc Català-Roca (Valls, Spain, 1922–Barcelona, 1998) was one of the great photographers of the twentieth century; the atmosphere he captures has a strong affinity with the literary universe of Carlos Ruiz Zafón.

Gabriel Casas (Barcelona, 1892–1973), an outstanding photojournalist of the period between the wars, was known for his innovative techniques. Although he was a victim of postwar repression, his work has recently been rediscovered.
