The Ministry of Culture has signed a donation agreement with collector Casimir Arajol to incorporate part of his collection into the public heritage funds of Andorra. This donation will be divided between the National Library and the National Archive.
The National Library will receive 16 original posters by Sergi Mas for the Fira de Andorra la Vella, along with 10 sketches, screen prints, and other graphic and editorial materials from the artist. This collection will help preserve and document Mas's career as a poster artist.
Meanwhile, the National Archive will add over 100 photographs dated between 1900 and 1933, depicting everyday life, popular traditions, and the transformations of the country, such as road construction. Among the most notable pieces are images of the Vall del Madriu-Perafita-Claror and a winter ascent of Comapedrosa, which took place on 24 December 1933, considered the first known graphic reference of this activity on the peak.
This donation contributes to preserving the historical and cultural memory of the country. The entire photographic collection is now accessible through the online archive platform.
