Of historical character are his commemorative statues dedicated to Ferdinand the Catholic, equestrian, and to Columbus, both in Barcelona. However, his Saint Jerome Reclining on a Rock (1845, Madrid, Museo del Prado-Cas\u00f3n del Buen Retiro) is the fundamental piece of his production. In it, classicist principles are combined with a very romantic recovery of the Spanish tradition of imagery, as he would once again demonstrate in the series of sculptures of saints that he created between 1847 and 1850 for the church of Santa Mar\u00eda de Tolosa.   <\/p>\n<p>By<span> <\/span><strong>Ponciano Ponzano Gasc\u00f3n<\/strong><span> <\/span>(1813-1877), an artist greatly influenced by the currents of the second European classicism, with which he came into contact during his stay in Rome, deserves mention, in addition to his mythological allegories, such as those of the bas-relief that covers the pediment of the Congress of Deputies (1848), various portraits, especially those dedicated to his protectors, the regent Maria Cristina, Isabel II and the Count of Toreno. One of his best works is the praying statue of the Infanta Carlota, destined for the controversial Pantheon of Infants of the church of El Escorial (1862-1888). <\/p>\n<p>Clearly indebted to his Italian education,<span> <\/span><strong>Sabino de Medina Pe\u00f1as<\/strong><span> <\/span>(1814-1879) made an important series of small portraits with a classicist air, several of which, like those of<span> <\/span><strong>Gil de Z\u00e1rate<\/strong><span> <\/span>or<span> <\/span><strong>Pascual y Colomer,<\/strong><span> <\/span>They are kept at the School of Architecture in Madrid. However, perhaps The Nymph Eurydice Bitten by an Asp (Madrid, Museo del Prado-Cas\u00f3n del Buen Retiro), imitating Greco-Roman models, is his most successful work, without forgetting the monument to Murillo (1861), which stands today in the Plaza del Museo in Seville. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Jos\u00e9 Pagniucci <\/strong><span>(<\/span>1821-1868), author of a statue of Antonio Cavanilles for the Romantic Garden and of an Isabel la Cat\u00f3lica for the Congress of Deputies, also made several interesting portraits, such as that of the Dukes of Villahermosa.<\/p>\n<p>The full-length statue o<span>f<\/span> <strong>Juan \u00c1lvarez Mendiz\u00e1bal<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1855), in Madrid&#8217;s Plaza del Progreso, destroyed during the last civil war, is often considered the most important work of the fully romantic sculpto<span>r<\/span> <strong>Jos\u00e9 Gragera y Herboso<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1828-1897), also the author of an outstanding statue of the botanis<span>t<\/span> <strong>Rojas Clemente<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1864, Madrid, Botanical Garden).<\/p>\n<p>Other names worth highlighting that can be included in this group ar<span>e<\/span> <strong>Pedro Collado Tejada<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1829-1887)<span>,<\/span> <strong>Diego Hermoso<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1800-1849)<span>,<\/span> <strong>Felipe Moratilla<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>b. 1827) o<span>r<\/span> <strong>Pedro Juan Santandreu<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1808-1838).<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>L&#8217;Escola de Llotja in Barcelona<\/h3>\n<p>A precursor in the sculptural expression of the new romantic sensibility is the group of sculptors, mostly disciples of Campeny, who came from L&#8217;Escola de Llotja, in Barcelona.<\/p>\n<p>One of its first representatives wa<span>s<\/span> <strong>Ram\u00f3 Padr\u00f3 i Pijo\u00e1n<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1800-1876), who cultivated a certain neo-baroque tendency in his works, evident in some of his works.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josep Bover i Mas<\/strong><span> <\/span>(c. 1802-1866) moved from his initial Canovian influence, evident in Gladiator Wounded and Gladiator Victorious (1825-1828, Acad\u00e8mia de Sant Jordi, Barcelona), to reflect in his works a marked predilection for medieval themes, more akin to the ideals of the Renaissance. Good examples of this are his James I and, above all, the splendid <span> <\/span><strong>Joan de Fivaller<\/strong><span> <\/span>(1844, Barcelona, City Hall). Later and already fully romantic is the Sepulchral Monument to Jaime Balmes (1865, Vic, Cathedral). <\/p>\n<p>The main Catalan sculptor of the time is surely<span> <\/span><strong>Manuel Vilar i Roca<\/strong><span> <\/span>(1812-1860). Influido durante sus estudios en Roma por la obra de los nazarenos alemanes, los trabajos de su etapa mexicana pueden considerarse ya plenamente rom\u00e1nticos, como muestra la magn\u00edfica escultura de Tlahuicole (1851, M\u00e9xico, Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes). <\/p>\n<p><span>&#8211;<\/span> <strong>Dom\u00e9nech Talarn i Ribot<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1812-1901) is also notable for his sculpture of religious images and nativity figures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Josep Anicet Santiagosa i Vestreten<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1823-1895), minor sculptor, is worthy of being remembered for the iron column o<span>f<\/span> <strong>Galcer\u00e1n Marquet<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1851, Barcelona, Plaza del Duque de Medinaceli).<\/p>\n<p>It is also necessary to remember other authors such a<span>s<\/span> <strong>Ram\u00f3 Subirat i Codorniz<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1828-1891<span>),<\/span> <strong>Joan Figueres Vila <\/strong><span>(<\/span>1829-1881)<span>,<\/span> <strong>Pau Riera<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1829-1871) or th<span>e<\/span> <strong>Venanci brothers<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1826-1919) an<span>d<\/span> <strong>Agapit Vallmitjana<\/strong> <span>(<\/span>1833-1905).<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h3>LITERATURE<\/h3>\n<p>ARIAS ANGL\u00c9S, E.
