Barcelona was founded more than 2000 years ago and it was the father of Hannibal that is credited for establishing this settlement. At the beginning of a new millennium, the Romans turned the town into a castrum and it quickly became an important stronghold for the Empire, due to its location. Over the course of centuries it changed a lot and the mix of architectural styles can now be observed in the Barcelona Art Wall Art up for sale at FulcrumGallery.com.
History buffs are going to find numerous landmarks and vestiges of the past in the Barcelona Art Wall Art, mostly scattered around the ancient harbor. In the center of the city, the Barri Gotic and Placa del Rei are the places where these historical evidences are better preserved. It was frequently the ultimate goal of conquerors, with everyone from the Visigoths to the Arabs and Charlesmagne trying to hold it. Sacked on several occasions and decimated by the great plague, the city endured and grew even stronger.
