Author

The court of Alfonso X (1251-1284)

From the Patrimonio Nacional website:" we can affirm that it is a collective creation in which several musicians and authors of the court participated, among whom the monarch himself stands out. We also do not know the identity of its material creators, but copyists and illuminators in the service of the royal desk participated in a fully coordinated manner"..."
