Through a wide-ranging selection of photographs, many of them previously unpublished, this book reveals a distinctive facet of Ramón Masats: his vision of childhood. A visual journey through his archive, it brings to light surprising images and offers a fresh perspective on the work of one of the great masters of Spanish photography.

Far more than a simple portrait of childhood, the book explores Masats’s ability to capture everyday life with spontaneity, irony and extraordinary sensitivity. Rescued from his archive, these images form a nuanced visual narrative that brings us closer to his way of seeing the world and allows us to discover the enduring relevance and richness of his photographic legacy.
