Colom took up photography in 1957 with the Agrupació Fotogràfica de Catalunya. He spent two years working on a reportage in Barcelona's 'Barri Xino' (red-light district), which he presented in 1961 at the Sala Aixelà in Barcelona with the title 'El carrer' (The Street). Three years later he published the book Izas, Rabizas y Colipoterras, with text by Camilo José Cela. In 1999 the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya put on a retrospective with the originals from 'El carrer', for which Colom was awarded the Spanish Ministry of Culture's Premio Nacional de Fotografía and the Medalla d'Or de la Ciutat de Barcelona in 2002 . Subsequently he received the Generalitat's Premi Nacional d'Arts Visuals and Barcelona City Hall's Ciutat de Barcelona prize for the visual arts.

Masana opened his studio in Granollers in 1914 and the one in Barcelona in 1921. His work centred mainly on commissioned work, essentially portraits, a genre in which he was considered one of the great masters of his time. From his pictorialist beginnings he has left some excellent testimonies. 'Art de la llum' and 'Arte Fotográfico' published work by him. However, the most innovative facet of his work was advertising photography, with his bold combinations of typography, photo-montage, plays of light and shadow or the feeling of movement, which can be appreciated in this picture.
