Processional Cross, Silver, Barbastro, Aragón, Spain, 16th Century
About the Item
With hallmarks.
It is necessary to indicate the survival in this piece of some details from the Spanish Gothic silverware (cresting, which appears around the XV century; the endings in fleur-de-lis shape; the widening in the arms of the cross; etc.) , together with elements that already respond to Renaissance influences (shape and decoration of the foot and the apple, elements in relief around the Crucifix, winged angel heads, figureheads, etc.). It is also possible to compare it with processional crosses such as the one from Buerba nowadays in the Diocesan Museum of Barbastro-Monzón (from the 16th century, with a striking repertoire of late Renaissance elements and certain similarities with the present); some in the Diocesan Museum of Barbastro (the one of Trillo of century XV, for example); another cross from Bagüés de Zaragoza dated in the 16th century and in the Diocesan Museum of Jaca; the one made in Burgos around 1550 that is today in the Los Angeles County Museum of Arts (United States); etc.

- Silver Pax O Portapaz, Spain, 16th CenturyLocated in Madrid, ESPortapaz. Silver in its color and gilded. Century XVI. Portapaz made of silver that has a handle (decorated with delicate plant motifs similar to those of the pilasters) and a female and a male bust at the bottom, as well as other architectural elements on the back, and, on the front, an architectural composition classicist basement (with busts flanking a flower and a cross), two pilasters (vegetal decoration and capital recalling the composite order) with entablature (flowers flanking an angel's head; moldings), and a semicircular arch finish with elements veined in relief under cross and flanked by two architectural motifs in the upper part. This composition frames and enhances a gilt silver relief where you can see the Lament or Cry over the Body of Christ, with the Virgin holding the head of Jesus, Saint John at her side, the Magdalene and other characters, a cross following the group and a landscape background with houses and plant elements. This architectural structure mentioned is similar to the one present in other 16th century portapaces, such as that of the Magdalena de Dos Hermanas parish (Hernando de Ballesteros el Mozo, around 1575); or that of the Galaroza parish (same author and date); or that of the portapaz of San Miguel de Jerez de los Caballeros (in some details); etc. As for the relief, it is possible to clearly see a strong Italian influence, and the similarity between it and important pieces such as the Portapaz known as “de Cisneros by Juan de Burgos (1493-1497; MuseoCatedralicio de Alcalá de Henares), as well as in paintings and reliefs. Also noteworthy are both the male and female busts in the lower area and the Maltese cross (or Saint John's) that appears in this area. This symbol was used since the 12th century as an insignia by the Knights Hospitallers of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, also known as the Order of Malta...Category
