Painted coffered wooden ceiling with corbels carved as animals, in the Diagonal room, on the first floor of the Palau Baro de Quadras, a mansion remodelled 1904-6 in catalan Modernisme style by Josep Puig i Cadafalch, 1867-1956, between the Avinguda Diagonal and Carrer Rossello, in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. This large room overlooking the Avinguda Diagonal was the family's main living room, with Moorish style arches, floral decorations, a coffered ceiling and stained glass gallery. The house was commissioned by Manuel Quadras i Feliu of the Quadras textile family. The building now houses the Institut Ramon Llull, which promotes catalan language and culture.
