On June 7, 1926, Antoni Gaudí walked out of the compound of the partially built Sagrada Familia for his daily confessions in Barcelona's old city. On the way he was knocked down by a tram. Largely reclusive and dressed like a pauper, the country's greatest architect was unreocognized and taken to the city's ancient public hospital where he was given a bed among the anonymous poor. Five days later, in a citywide ourpouring of mourning, a vast funreal procession accompanied the coffin to the crypt of the unfinished masterpiece. This is the story of the last days.
