"Inspiration
Lace mineral, fortress openwork. Caressed by centuries of light.
Jealous of the shadow it shelters,
it allows only a daring ray to filter. An unexpected perfume playing on a warm-cold
effect, combining strength and delicacy.
Mudejar art
Mudejar is a syncretic, hybrid art that developed in Andalusia between the 12th and
16th century. Sacred and profane buildings have been built in a rich and fertile
architectural vocabulary, combining artistic, technical and symbolic contributions from
different cultures and horizons. The stone has gone through the centuries.
It recalls in a stunning way, the happy artistic and symbolic mixture of the three
monotheistic cultures that Andalusian land has united. The hands of the Mudejar
craftsmen have carved, engraved, painted, sculpted this eternal testimony. The
churches are decorated with arabesques, with arches overstepped, and chased plaster.
The bell-towers are in the form of minarets.
The palaces enclose treasures of ceramics and interior courtyards worthy of those of
Damascus. These elements produced a moving style of great artistic interest."
