Spain, Architecture, Antoni, Gaudi

Before I start this blog I would like to announce that the 2 pictures on my first blog seem to be the only ones I could find. The reason for this is that, he avoided cameras so there are few pictures of the famous architect.
Gaudi was in the military from 1874 through 1877. he enlisted at the age of 22, and was never in combat, during the time he served for Army Infantry in Barcelona. He was a very good student in school (as a child when he was able to go) and did very well in geometry. For his university years Gaudi attended, the Providencal School of Architecture. He often missed classes here, but he periodically went to the library. Gaudi's mother died a little while after he began to study for his architecture degree in 1876.
