Profile and historiographical debate

As it was already noted by Puiggarí, and according to the testimony of the notary Eximeno, it is necessary to place Antoni Baruta on January 14, 1394, due to his quality of gold embroiderer in the city of Barcelona, even since it is unknown the place where he came from.
