Al-Andalus and the visual culture of Spanish elites in the Middle Ages. Past, present and future of its heritage. Conference by Elena Paulino

Overview

Throughout the 14th and 15th centuries, Spanish elites developed a cosmopolitan artistic language that drew from a variety of artistic traditions.

The development of an international Islamic language, as well as the constant exchanges with al-Andalus, allowed the development of shared cultural practices in the Iberian Peninsula that were reflected in literature, architecture, visual arts and sumptuary objects.

In this lecture we will take a look at the changes that took place in the art and architecture of the 14th and 15th centuries in the Iberian Peninsula, their relationship with the arts of al-Andalus and we will analyse how this heritage has been catalogued throughout history
