It possesses the first roasts lightly Mudejar bell tower of the city (1257-58), whose low part is open by means of pointed arches and vault of gun barrel, by being gone through for a street. It is decorated with round arches intercrossed, friezes of |esquinillas| with woods of ceramics, trumpet-shaped windows in round arch, dishes and blue sharks glazed in green and royal purple, etcetera. Other of the summits works of the Mudejar art it inserts in the cathedral is your roofing, carried out about the 1300. It is of wood, with framework of couple and knuckle, profusely decorated with vegetable stylized, geometric and epigraphic items of Islamic tradition and figured Gothic lineal decoration. This last surprises for your wealth and variety, by having received diverse performances: systematic representation of the whole hears from the time, cosmic representation, presided for the monthes of the year ( happen of the time ) and the different human activities: themes linked to the Romance literature.url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/smb_flickr/1315015495/santi[/url] |
