Hotel Aigua Blava Side Gate Murals – Playa De Fornells, Spain - Murals on Waymarking.com

This hotel has expanded over the years and is made up of a number of different buildings. It looks like this used to be the main entrance to the hotel, but is now only a side entrance. This certainly is not where the hotel reception is located.

The mural on the left hand side is of a fish, and on the right hand side is a cockerel. Each of the murals are square and consist of painted ceramic tiles in a 10 x 10 arrangement. Each of the murals has one tile signed by Diaz Costa of Bisbal.

This website indicates that he was a painter, landscaper born in 1909 and died in 1964. He moved to La Bisbal in 1950 and has some of his work displayed in the Museum of Modern Art of Barcelona. (visit link) This website is in Catalan and so you will probably need to have it translated.

This coastal hotel and the inland town of La Bisbal are both in the Emporda district of Catalonia in Eastern Spain. La Bisbal is a major producer of ceramics with many factories and shops specialising in Ceramic products.
