释义 |
Granada Charterhouse ({{lang-es|Cartuja de Granada}}) is a Carthusian monastery in Granada, Spain. It is one of the finest examples of Spanish Baroque architecture. The charterhouse was founded in 1506; construction started ten years later, and continued for the following 300 years. While the exterior is a tame ember in comparison, the interior of the monastery's is a flamboyant explosion of ornamentation. Its complex echoing geometric surfaces make of it one of the masterpieces of Churrigueresque style. The most striking features include the tabernacle, constructed to a design by Francisco Hurtado Izquierdo, the church and the famous sacristy, built between 1727 and 1764 by Luis de Arévalo and F. Manuel Vasquez.[1] The charterhouse displays an extensive collection of paintings, prominent among which the works of Fray Juan Sánchez Cotán. References1. ^Pevsner, Nikolaus.
