Girona Museum of Art is presenting 'Escena de confirmació d’un crim' throughout August as part of its 'Un mes, una obra' series. The museum’s online notice says the work is being shown “during all of August,” and the accompanying study links the object to a historical resonance that, according to the museum, unexpectedly reappears more than a century later.

The featured object is identified on the museum page as 'Escena de confirmació d’un crim', with unknown authorship and a dating of circa 1844 to 1886. The work is described as a boxwood woodcut, measuring 10 by 13.5 by 2.5 centimetres, and held in the museum’s collection under registration number 136.125 from the Fons d’Art Diputació de Girona.

The study for the work was prepared by Tura Soler i Pagès, whose name appears on the museum’s page as the author of the analysis. The institution invites visitors to read the full study and see the piece at the museum over the course of the month. The linked page does not provide additional details in the excerpt beyond the object’s basic attribution, materials, dimensions and collection information.

'Un mes, una obra' is one of the museum’s ongoing interpretive formats, in which a single work is given extended attention for a defined period. In this case, the museum is pairing the display with a written study rather than a larger exhibition framework, keeping the emphasis on one object and its documented history.

The notice also situates the work within the Girona Museum of Art’s broader programme listings, alongside other collection and exhibition sections on the institution’s website. The museum’s own page identifies the object clearly and gives the viewing window as August, with the event date range running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026 in Girona.

The museum’s message frames the presentation as an opportunity to encounter the object directly while consulting the full study online. The object remains the focus of the month-long initiative, with the institution’s site directing readers to the dedicated page for 'Escena de confirmació d’un crim' and its August presentation at Girona Museum of Art.
