Witness "El Petó de la Mort" (The Kiss of Death), a haunting marble masterpiece from 1930 in Barcelona's Poblenou Cemetery. This remarkable sculpture depicts death as a winged skeleton tenderly kissing a young man, symbolizing the gentle passage between life and what lies beyond.

The inscription reads: "His young heart is thus extinguished. The blood in his veins grows cold. And all strength has gone. Faith has been extolled by his fall into the arms of death." The artwork's stunning craftsmanship transforms something frightening into something strangely beautiful.
