Biography[]
His father, Celestí Tamburini i Valls, was a silversmith. He studied at the Escola de la Llotja with Antoni Caba, then went to Paris, where he worked with Léon Bonnat. Later, he went to Rome and Naples; coming under the influence of Domenico Morelli and Gioacchino Toma.
After returning to Barcelona, he published articles, reviews and drawings in La Vanguardia and , and began showing his paintings at the Sala Parés. In 1888, he was awarded a silver medal at the Barcelona Universal Exposition.[1]
He initially devoted himself to historical works, but moved away from Realism to a type of Symbolism and developed an interest in the English Pre-Raphaelites. As a result, much of his work took on a "literary" quality.
On various occasions, he participated in the Exposiciones Nacionales de Bellas Artes in Madrid and was a member of the (Museum Board) as well as teaching at the Escola. In 1900, he was one of the co-founders of the "Societat Artística i Literària de Catalunya". He continued to contribute to various periodicals throughout his life.
