- Title
Las puertas de la basílica de la Sagrada Familia de Barcelona.
- Authors
I TÀRRECH, Armand PUIG
- Abstract
The Basilica of the Holy Family in Barcelona has three doorways to the nave which exceed the measurements and concept of a normal entrance. Gaudí intended them as altarpieces. The doors or facades of the basilica constitute impressive descriptions of the three central Christological mysteries: a) Jesus enters the world (door of the Nativity, which is the oldest); b) Jesus leaves the world (door of the Passion, the most recent); c) the glorious coming of Jesus at the end of time (door of Glory, which has not yet been built).
