Collection of posters about “La Rambla” of Barcelona. This boulevard is made up by sections that have different names, activities, traditions and identities.

We start the series of posters with the first one: Canaletes! More than a club.
In this section, during the 1930s, there was the newspaper headquarters “La Rambla”, which published the football results on a blackboard outside the window. This is the reason many supporters celebrate the victories by the fountain. This fountain had already been a meeting point before, because women used to fetch water in their pitchers.
The individual benches that we can find today at the beginning of La Rambla are a tribute to the chairs that were once rented by the minute, just to watch people go by, read or wait.
This is where La Rambla begins. A tireless walkway with a wave-like pavement that will soon disappear, but remain forever in the memory of those who walked on it.

For the next poster of La Rambla, we have chosen a nostalgic scene from La Rambla de les Flors, also known as La Rambla de Sant Josep. This is an image rescued from the memory. Past, present and hopefully future. This is where we find the flower stalls that are set up and taken down every day. Whether the first poster tried to represent the noise of La Rambla, with this one we wanted to transmit the perfume of this section. Although there are fewer and fewer stalls, some florists continue to resist among their flowers. Let's take care of them so that future generations can enjoy this memory.
For the moment, our collection of posters ends up here. We hope we can continue to develop more scenes of La Rambla in the future!
