ALTARPIECE OF THE MIRACULOUS

 


The altarpiece of La Milagrosa is from the 17th century in a classicist baroque style. Its structure consists of a single body with classical columns - alternating Corinthian and Ionic capitals. The triangular-shaped attic is topped with sibyls and angels.

The sculptures are reminiscent of the style of Manuel Adeva Pacheco, a sculptor closely related to Segovia, where his father was from. His training was developed mainly with the sculptor Humbert Dumandré.

This altarpiece may come from the disappeared convent of La Merced.
