Santiago Rusiñol (1861 - 1931) was a Spanish Catalan post-impressionist/Decadent painter, author, and playwright.

He was born in Barcelona in 1861, and died in Aranjuez in 1931 while painting its famous gardens.

He influenced Pablo Picasso as a modern artist, and also left a lot of modernist buildings in Sitges, a town in Catalonia very influenced by that artist.
