In the first place, there is a tour of his vital trajectory which until now was totally unknown. And then, attention is paid to his facet as a cathedral silversmith and his most relevant works, in which we verify the existing debate in this period of transition, between the Rococo tradition practiced by the goldsmith and his forced adaptation to the Neoclassicism imposed by the elite of the cathedral.","PeriodicalId":516708,"journal":{"name":"Norba.

For this purpose, a commission was set up and called a national contest, awarding two famous workshops the exact reproduction of the pieces. Four splendid unpublished designs made for this purpose by Cayetano González Gómez, the greatest representative of 20th-century Sevillian silverware, born in Malaga, are preserved in the funds of the Diocesan Heritage Delegation. Although they were never materialized, their extraordinary intrinsic plastic quality makes it possible to understand them as an interesting creative reflection on the versatility of ornament and the speaking role of iconography, applied to a secular typology of such success in Spanish silverware.","PeriodicalId":516708,"journal":{"name":"Norba.

In 1795 he executed the painting Animas in the parish of Santa María de la Encina and San Juan Bautista, in the town of Burguillos del Cerro, Badajoz. The canvas testifies the aroma of historical thought in a place other than a heart of power at the end of the Old Regime, and shows the importance of the of art ideas and influence trafficking. As a result of this discovery, I have been able to add some other works to his oeuvre.","PeriodicalId":516708,"journal":{"name":"Norba.

The stripping away of the historicist and vernacular forms of the early Franco regime marked this revival; also, due to the disciplinary interaction with the plastic arts, which at that time moved towards abstraction as modernity. This paper traces the lines of transfers and collaborations between architecture, painting and sculpture in a complex moment of interdisciplinary relationship through an analytical reading of different works and events of the moment. It is about outlining an environment of collaboration and interaction between singular architects and artists, who learned from each other and proposed other ways of building the common ‘plastic space’ of the arts.","PeriodicalId":516708,"journal":{"name":"Norba.

We study the triple system of marking silver that was adopted in Burgos and Valladolid, which were reference cities for the rest of the Castilian territory. However, the cities of the Crown of Aragon, which worked silver of eleven dineros, adopted a system of surveillance marking by the city authorities, but with hardly any participation of the silversmiths.","PeriodicalId":516708,"journal":{"name":"Norba.
