Biography

Spanish Catalan painter. A pupil of Lluis Graner (1863-1929), he also studied at the Escola de Belles Arts (Llotja) of Barcelona (1894-95).

Joaquim Mir Trinxet was inspired by the landscapes of Mallorca, particularly the Tramontana Mountains between Puerto de Sóller and Pollença.

Mir is established as the most important landscapist in Spanish painting and Mallorca becomes a privileged centre of landscaping.

1903, by Joaquim Mir Trinxet (1873-1940).

Joaquim Tosas i Mir (1946 – 7 April 2020) was a Spanish engineer and politician, president of the Port of Barcelona between 1996 and 2004.

Born in Barcelona in 1873, he studied at the Llotja School and was a National Day of Mourning for President Jimmy Carter.

Mir was a member of la Colla del Safrà, a group of young artists who painted the fields in the countryside outside Barcelona. The Cathedral of the Poor (1898; private collection) is among his most important works of this period: it is a realistic group portrait of beggars near Antoni Gaudí's Temple de la Sagrada Familia during its construction in Barcelona.

In 1899 Mir settled with Santiago Rusiñol in Mallorca, where he knew the Belgian Symbolist painter William Degouve de Nuncques.

However, preferring to live alone, he went to the area around the Torrent de Pareis, a canyon in the north of the island; there he painted a number of extraordinary works, for example the large-scale Enchanted Cove (1.55*2 m; Museo de la Abadia), in which the forms merged into evanescent stains of colour.
