The Rejeria art in the cathedral of small towns

The grates of the picture this is really tough work of Cristobal of Andean of the XVI and belong to the chapel of the constable. All grates are of the better Castilian-Aragonese forges and sum up the evolution of the forge hispanizes from the XV century to the present time. The art of the construction of grates reaches in Spain such importance that passes to occupy in his own right a fundamental position in the history of the art the evolution of the Renaissance related |rejeria| is in certain similar way to those of the architecture; begin with a series of grates that still it is kept in the Gothic world, but having a presentiment of the arrival of the rebirth. Then, from principles of the s. XVI, introduce fully the Renaissance related, agreed forms with the plateresque architecture of the moment to finish, in the last third of the century, with grates whose sobriety and simplicity remember the |herrerianos| buildings. The grates of transition of the Gothic to the rebirth, for your trace, present a marked traditional character, but in your details implant gradually the ornamental motives experts in the Renaissance, in front of the naturalism of ends of the Gothic. The ends decorate with edgings or big tapes in fold soaking plate, developed in form curves that it is stopped and interlace and that it is completed with rods on those who it is soldered are in a wallflower cut as scions, sheets and large flowers, more or less stylized, in rigorous parallelism, but without reaching to the grotesque of the rebirth; sometimes, thoses rods sketch volutes finish in a figure of saint. Your ascendant impetus, reinforced for the use of the torch-holders in the end to way of Gothic pinnacles, remains somewhat reduced for the horizontal sashes with ornamentation in plates cut.
