"Mudéjar art : Islamic aesthetics in Christian art reveals the fascinating exuberance of a unique cultural and artistic symbiosis that characterizes Christian Spain after the Reconquista. The Mudéjars were Muslims allowed to stay in the reconquered territories. Their artists and artisans strongly influenced the culture and art of the new Christian kindoms. In Aragon, Castille, Extremadura and Andaluc̕a sumptuously decorated brick churches, monasteries and palaces illustrate the creative endurance of Islamic forms in Christian art between the 11th and 16th centures in Spain. Thirteen itineraries invite you to discover 124 musuems, monuments and sites in Madrid, Guadalajara, Saragossa, Tordesillas, Toledo, Guadalupe and Seville (among others)-- Provided by publisher
