High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Antoni Placid Guillem Gaudi i Cornet (25 June 1852–10 June 1926)—in English, often referred to by the Spanish translation of his name, Antonio Gaudi—was a Spanish Catalan architect who operated in the same time period as the Modernist style (Art Nouveau) movement but was famous for his unique and highly individualistic designs and thus is not categorized as such. Antoni Gaudi was born in the province of Tarragona in southern Catalonia on 25 June 1852. The artist's parents, Francesc Gaudi Serra and Antonia Cornet Bertran, both came from families of coppersmiths. During his youth, Gaudi suffered many times from the rheumatic fevers that were common at the time. This illness caused him to spend much time in isolation, and it also allowed him to spend lots of time alone with nature. It was this exposure to nature at an early age which is thought to have inspired him to incorporate natural shapes and themes into his later work.
