Nestled between the rocky coastline and the ancient walls of the old town Carrer de Fonollar is perhaps the most evocative street in all of Sitges. This photograph captures the narrow winding passage as it hugs the rear of the magnificent Palau de Maricel creating a canyon of golden stone and whitewashed facades. This street is the architectural heartbeat of Catalunya where the medieval past meets the artistic flourish of the early twentieth century.
