Collector Adrià López Sala has launched the book Cadaqués inédit 1890-1960 in Cadaqués, a work featuring two hundred historical images documenting the town's evolution over seven decades.

Published by Farell Editors, the book is a collaboration between López Sala and poet Vicenç Altaió. The volume draws from the collector's extensive digital archive, which includes postcards, maps, and glass plates gathered since his youth. The author's family has been rooted in Cadaqués since 1830.

"The history of Cadaqués has always interested me. Generally, we are all good friends and share what we find."

The book is organized into five chronological sections, covering everything from urban landscapes to daily life and local festivities. All images have been unified with a sepia tone to maintain a vintage aesthetic while preserving the historical data from the original glass plates and negatives.
