Frederic Marès assembled an important collection of Christmas greetings, many from the correspondence he received and others bought by himself.
We present one to you selection of five original carols dedicated to La Nit de Reis , three of which come from women artists . Maria Dolors Salmons and Maria Luisa Pérez are two virtually unknown illustrators, with whom, more or less, Frederic Marès came into contact.
The show is complemented by two carols of unknown authorship that illustrate the arrival of the Kings of the East.
