EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning sculpture of Saint James the Pilgrim, created by the renowned Spanish sculptor Pablo de Rojas in the late 16th or early 17th century, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Andalusia during the Baroque period. The sculpture, which can be found in the Cathedral of Granada, Spain, depicts the apostle Saint James, the patron saint of Spain, as a barefooted pilgrim, carrying a staff and a book. The polychromed statue, which showcases the Mannierist style, features intricate details, including a flowing beard and a deeply expressive face. The image of Saint James as a pilgrim reflects the spiritual journey and devotion of the Catholic faithful during this time. The statue's historical significance is further emphasized by its location in the Granada Cathedral, a symbol of the city's rich religious and cultural history. This sculpture is an excellent example of the artistic mastery and religious imagery that flourished during the modern age in Spain, making it a must-see for art and history enthusiasts alike.
