Notes

Xavier Nogués produced the drawings in collaboration with Conxa Domènech. He also transferred some of them – painted in enamel – onto glass. Ricard Crespo oversaw the firing of the pieces, while Conxa Domènech de Crespo also traced and refined Nogués’ drawings. The extent of Xavier Nogués’ direct involvement is particularly evident in the finishing touches and becomes even more apparent when the pieces are compared with the original drawings.
