Description

Explore the historical development of San Isidoro in Leon through Queen as King: Politics and Architectural Propaganda in Twelfth-century Spain. This scholarly work by Brill traces the evolution of the site from an eleventh-century palatine chapel within a double monastery to a significant twelfth-century pilgrimage church managed by Augustinian canons. A major contribution to art history, this book recovers the lost patronage of Queen Urraca, who reigned from 1109 to 1126. By examining how Urraca maintained and subverted her family's traditional patronage, the text provides the necessary context to understand the specific art and architecture of San Isidoro. This study offers a deep look into the political and architectural landscape of the medieval and early modern Iberian world.
