I’ve always loved these beautiful plates that La Azotea has been using for years to adorn their walls, in all three of their locations. But I only just found out they are made by an Italian artist Mauro Basile living in Zahara de los Atunes, in Cádiz. Gorgeous stuff.

So this is what led me to discover Cuadros Venecia the other day. My friend Reyes Morales had given me this fabulous print of her bar by local artist Alfredo Rodríguez and I needed to find a frame. Alfredo started his Fachadas de Sevilla & Co as something to keep him occupied during lockdown and now he has over 50 in the collection, which are available as hand signed limited releases. The detail here is amazing, as it is in all of his drawings. So this is now my second of the collection (I bought Casa Eme in 2020 after hearing he had shut for good). Below you can see some close ups of Casa Morales and a pic of the first sketch he made (swiped from Alfredo’s Instagram). I really love these.

It’s Caturday and here is Morcilla admiring my newly framed print of Casa Morales by local artist (and vecino) @alfredorfz expertly framed by Cuadros Venecia. Thank you so much for the print Reyes Morales, I love it (and you!).

I’ve passed by this little alley maybe a gazillion times over the years, but today was the first time I’ve been down it (at least that I can recall). I was on the hunt for a picture frame (more on that later) and saw online that an art shop in one of the pedestrian shopping streets had their framing workshop just around the corner. It’s a family-run place called Cuadros Venecias that has been in business for over a hundred years and what a cool experience it was. I even got a tour of the back rooms, though didn’t go upstairs (the workspace covers three floors!). All shopping should be this fun and interesting. Stay tuned for the finished product (should have it by Monday).

Driving back from Arcos l was so excited to see the Amazing Alexandra del Bene back working on her epic project painting 15 gigantic murals commemorating the quincentennial of the Magellan-Elcano expedition to circumnavigate the world. What a woman.
