Era millor abans / How to erase the atmosphere

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

Foto presa amb una Hasselblad SWC, fabricada el 1976; pel·licula Ilford Delta 100, revelada "stand" amb Rodinal.

Recordo que aquesta escala era especialment bonica, abans de la restauració del 2000. Amb les baranes de vidre i tot plegat s'ha perdut per sempre, aquell aire...

Una visita al antic monestir benedictí de Sant Benet de Bàges, fundat al s. IX, tot i que destruit pels sarrains el 1114 i refet completament en estil romànic. El 1593 fou unit al monestir de Montserrat, que hi envià monjos, especialment els ancians, fins al 1835, en que fou liquidat per la desamortització.

El 1907 la mare del pintor Ramon Casas comprà les ruines per a fer-ne una casa d'estiueig.

======================

Picture taken with a Hasselblad SWC, made in 1976; Ilford Delta 100 film, stand developed in Rodinal.

But these stairs where beautiful in their abandoned state, befor they were so cleaned that all the atmosphere is gone.

The beautiful romanesque abbey of Sant Benet de Bages, near Manresa, was founded in the IX Century but destroyed by the muslims in 1114. It was rebuilt later in romanesque style. In 1593 was put under the control of the larger Montserrat abbey until 1835, when all monastic communities where eliminated. It was sacked and abandoned till 1907, when the mother of the Catalan painter Ramon Casas bought it as a residence (it was owned by the family till 2000, and then fully restored).
