Los talleres de platería de Sangüesa (Navarra). Las piezas

Abstract

Sangüesa's silversmith's, though having medieval background, reached its highest splendour during the XVIth century. Forty four silvermiths, working and learning in this town, have been recorded. They belonged to Saint Eloy's brotherhood and made a great number of works for churches in Navarra and Aragón, some of them marked with the stamp or punch of Sangüesa and his author. A plentiful documentation guarantees the historical accuracy of this investigation work.
