Gaudi was born in Spain in 1852. He was the youghest of five children. His mother died in his infancy and his brother and sister died at an early age. Gaudi came to Barcelona at the age of 21 to study.
He studied architecture in Barcelona, Spain at the Escola Tecnica Superior d’Arquitectura but he was not a very good student. After five years, in 1878, Gaudi officially became an architect.
Stricken with a rheumatic problem that made walking painful, young Antoni Gaudí often missed school and had little interaction with other children
he building that Antoni Gaudi is best known for, though, is La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona . He began this huge church in 1882 and he worked on it until he died in 1926. It still has not been finished.
Unfortunately, the last drawing he drew was destroyed in 1938 so the architects who are now working on the building don’t know exactly what Gaudi had in mind for the church.
He spent much of his time walking and observing animals, plants and forms in nature.
He died on June 10, 1926 . He was overrun by a tram.
Good Job Antonia. That is exactly how you should do it.
