Production | Jaume Estapa is also known as Jaime Estapa. Jaume is the Catalan version of James and Jaime is the Spanish version. The different names arose because in 1941, when Estapa was born in Barcelona, the Spanish government (under Francisco Franco) did not allow first names in Catalan. The artist was therefore baptised under the first name of 'Jaime', but because he considered himself a Catalan, even when he moved to France, he signed his works with his Catalan first name 'Jaume', by which his friends and family also knew him. |
