Abstract

The aim of this article is to study an inventory of store of the architect Ignasi Tomàs Fabregat, future Director of the Academy of Drawing of Granada, which was made just before his wedding in 1789. It is noted that this document would not be, surely, the last list of possessions of the architect. In fact it was made as a warranty of his marriage. The analyzed affidavit shows the library of a professional of the architecture with a relevant social position, with the acquisition of books in different languages. There will be always the question of what places did he visited and knew in order to expand his artistic imagination.
