Summary

The phenomenon of the art collections reached a considerable development during the contemporary era, thanks to the social ascendancy of the middle classes. In the city of Bilbao this circumstance was especially important around 1900, and thus the amount of collectors was remarkable. One of them was the industrialist Faustino Jáuregui, who,among other works, collected magnificent pictures by Catalan painters from the turn of the century, like Enrique Serra Auqué.
