Maria Josefa Massanes i Dalmau (1811-1887) was not only a notable Spanish philanthropist, but her surname shares a rich artistic heritage. In the realm of Gothic Art, Lluis Dalmau (fl. 1431-1461) left an indelible mark with his masterpiece, "The Virgin of the Councillors." This exquisite work, created over five centuries before Maria Josefa's birth, continues to captivate art enthusiasts. Meanwhile, in the literary sphere, Jacint Verdaguer (1845-1902), a renowned Spanish poet, penned verses that echoed the beauty and depth of Dalmau's artistic legacy. Yet, the roots of this artistic lineage extend further back, to another Lluis Dalmau (fl. 1460), a master sculptor whose works continue to inspire awe and wonder. The Dalmau name, thus, is a testament to the enduring influence of Spanish art and culture, spanning across centuries and artistic mediums.
