Writing about the Catalonian Constitution, the Virgin and the Child, Modernisme Art, and Head of a Catalan Peasant, were four fascinating choices that each speak to a different facet of Catalonian culture - religion, politics, art, and architecture. The choice to examine these facets of culture through different artistic artifacts was an engaging one, and I appreciated reading the details on these artifacts, such as how the Miro painting could be interpreted as assertion of his own Catalan identity.
