Description
Summary:A series of unpublished documents concerning the facture of the main retable in St. Peter's church in Murcia (an incomplere part of in still persists today), offers us a material to study this piece. We also pay attention to the reasons which motivated the substitution of a former heredos made by Antonio Caro from 1702 onwards, and to this former reredos itself. The typologic answer given by the author, Nicolás de Rueda, constitutes one of the examples of late baroque schemes, which cannot be understood without the presence of the imafronte. We also compile the bibliography on the chapel patronage by rhe Saavedra family.
