The Enigmatic Joan Bennàssar: Unveiling the Mystery of Her Stone Sculptures Joan Bennàssar's name was all but forgotten until a collection of her stone sculptures was discovered in the rural hills of Catalonia, Spain, in the mid 2000s.
As an artist and art historian, I have always been intrigued by the enigmatic quality that surrounds these works, which has only added to their allure.
Bennàssar's life remains shrouded in mystery, with some accounts suggesting she was a local artisan who lived during the 19th century.
