EDITORS COMMENTS
The Infantado Palace in Guadalajara, Spain, is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture from the late 15th century. This stunning image captures the beauty of the palace's Courtyard of the Lions, which features a central double archway adorned with ogee arches in the lower gallery and Doric columns. The intricate decorative elements of the courtyard include mixtilinear arches, latticework, and twisted shafts, all of which add to the fantastic and otherworldly atmosphere. The upper gallery is supported by a series of columns, each topped with the sculpted heads of griffins and other mythical creatures. The double archery, with its ogee arches, adds an element of military might to the otherwise ornate design, reflecting the palace's history as a fortified residence. The Infantado Palace was built during the reign of King Enrique IV of Castile, and was commissioned by Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, the Duke of the Infantado. The palace's architectural design is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Spanish Middle Ages, and its intricate details continue to captivate visitors to this day. The Courtyard of the Lions is just one of many impressive features of the Infantado Palace, which also includes a magnificent chapel and a beautiful garden. The palace's rich history and stunning architecture make it a must-see destination for anyone interested in the art and culture of the medieval period in Spain.
