The major chapel of San Juan de Baza's Church (Granada)

Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2021, Vol 10, Issue 4

Abstract

The church of San Juan, a unique building of the sixteenth century, represents as a whole an outstanding manifestation of the transit from late Gothic architecture to renaissance architecture in the north of the Kingdom of Granada. The main chapel, the oldest and most relevant space of the temple, to which we dedicate this article, was the first to be built, in the first third of the sixteenth century, raising its altarpiece at the end of that century.
