Color in Spanish sculpture
One of the most fascinating and valuable facets of sculpture in Spain is polychrome. When we stop before a piece like the Renaissance reliefs we must imagine that it is very likely that more than one artist worked on them. For the execution, they would have required a master carver, a craftsman who would cover the wood with plaster and then define the shapes and contours, and finally the gilders and painters whose work often forgotten was the one that provided the true final result.
