Ten years later he worked for Alfonso IV of Aragon , executing miniatures for the manuscripts of the Uses of Barcelona and the Costumes of Catalonia , showing a strong French and Siena Sienese influence.

His main surviving work is the series of wall paintings in the St. Michael Chapel in the Monastery of Pedralbes . It includes some twenty scenes basing on two main themes the Passion of Christ and the Seven Pains of the Virgin, showing Giotto Giottesque influences, as well as from Duccio di Buoninsegna and Ambrogio Lorenzetti .

Rubellia Bassa born between 33 38 was a daughter of Gaius Rubellius Blandus , consul in 18 and possibly his wife Julia daughter of Drusus the Younger Julia killed 43 or an earlier wife. Possible Imperial ancestry It has been theorized that her mother was Julia daughter of Julius Caesar Drusus and Livilla , which would make Bassa the granddaughter of Tiberius however, this lineage is uncertain because her father, Gaius Rubellius Blandus married Julia daughter of Drusus the Younger Julia when he around 55, which makes an earlier marriage likely possibly to a Laecania Bassa , and Rubellia Bassa may have been the daughter of Blandus by this theorized earlier marriage. Bassa had at least one sibling, a ?half brother named Rubellius Plautus Gaius Rubellius Plautus , who was one of the nearest heirs of the blood of Augustus being the grandson of Julius Caesar Drusus Drusus Caesar , who was an adopted grandson of Augustus .
