There he&#;d finish up founding a transatlantic ship company, that would be eventually responsible of the post services between the Island and Spain. But they also transported passengers, specially soldiers destined to Cuba: more than , in the total history of the company.
He founded a bank and finally settled down in Barcelona, where he married. He got involved in tobacco import from the Philippines (still Spanish by then), railways and coal mining. He was said to be the richest person in Spain. That&#;s why King Alphonso XII granted him the title of Marquis of Comillas in acknowledgement of his contribution to the progress of the Spanish wealth.
Joan Güell and Antonio López had met in Cuba dealing with slaves and they became friends. So it&#;s not surprising that Eusebio married Antonio&#;s daughter Isabel and soon started participating in

Is there an androgynous trial of a city? No? Then Barcelona has just invented it, perhaps not only for me. This should not be too surprising as this aged, Spanish city ranks as number one in lgbtq+ freedoms, nuptial rights included. I'd never spent moment there, and my schedule for six days was: 1) Gaudi, 2) more Gaudi (there are 13 sites in the Catalan capital) and 3) other "modernists" of architecture.
Plunging into Gaudi et al can cause the visitor instant "Stendhal Syndrome" -- that famous malaise or vertigo that befalls travelers who expose themselves to more art and cultural sensation than they can stomach. Gaudi's spirals, swirls and flourishes present a grave risk of overwhelm -- an architecture that vacillates between overstuffed women's boudoirs from , dreamscapes out of Nights, and visionary nature mysticism. This male genius was perhaps overwhelmed by his possess creations: After laboring on some of them for decades, he left major works unfinished. His favorite, the Basilica of La Sagrada Familia, begun in , had just one finished facade with four towers when, in , a streetcar named demise ended Gaudi's obsessions.
