His works were mainly based on the human body, using very precise drawing technique and excellent illustration, and influenced to a certain extent by Picasso as regards the expression of ideas and images of symbolic content. In his works as a designer, Caraltó displays a more decorative counterpoint. He also undertook illustrations for books and theater.[1][2]
