Summary
The author analyses some aspects of the deep changes that took place in the art of baroque silveware, by concentrating on a group of pieces from the Museum of Holy Art in Vitoria, the existence of most of which has been hitherto unpublished. The author then establishes, after making some considerations of religious, political, social and economic conditions, a three-stage evolution of the art of baroque silversmithery. For this reason, he explains the typological, technical, ornamental and inconographic evolution of the pieces, throughout this long artistic period from the History of Art, its repercussions in silversmithery within the Basque Country and more concretely in Alava.Sing up and download the publications of Eusko Ikaskuntza
