Abstract
Great palace and solid towers: the artistic patronage of Bishops Gómez Manrique and Juan García Manrique in Santiago de Compostela The current study analyses the artistic promotion driven by the Bishops Gómez Manrique (1351-1362) and Juan García Manrique (1382- 1398), during their respective episcopal periods in Santiago de Compostela, and its impact. Both prelates undertook, in different moments and diverse historic situations, influenced by the relationships with the kingdom of Portugal, with the cathedral chapter and the city council, several projects of great importance. The works were made within the frame of the renovations that, during the XIV century, underwent the Romanesque cathedral and its dependencies, particularly the archiepiscopal palace
