Summary
Details

"MUDÉJAR ART: Islamic Aesthetics in Christian Art reveals the fascinating exuberance

of a unique cultural and artistic symbiosis that characterises Christian Spain after

the Reconquista. The Mudéjars were Muslims allowed to stay in the reconquered

territories. Their artists and artisans strongly influenced the culture and art of the new

Christian kingdoms. In Aragon, Castille, Extremadura and Andalucía sumptuously

decorated brick churches, monasteries and palaces illustrate perfectly the creative

endurance of Islamic forms in Christian art between the 11th and 16th centuries in

Spain.

Thirteen Itineraries invite to discover 124 museums, monuments and sites in Madrid,

Guadalajara, Saragossa, Tordesillas, Toledo, Guadalupe and Seville (among others).

236 colour illustrations 28 plans of monuments 318 pages.
