Drawings of two Germans in Spain: Otto Schubert and Oskar Jürgens

Abstract

In the first decades of the 20th century occurs the curious coincidence of two German architects who are interested in architecture and the cities of Spain, carrying out an intense field work, presumably, at precarious conditions of language and resources. The most surprising aspect of their work is the graphical contribution that both perform as a methodological strategy, developing a specific classification system of drawings based on his studies that, in some respects, has not been exceeded after a century. We try thus to highlight their achievements, analyzing and evaluating the graphic aspects of their works.
