Siglo de Oro

spa_siglo_de_oro

Spain stands at the cusp of an unprecedented cultural flowering, the Siglo de Oro whose first stirrings are already visible in Antonio de Nebrija's Castilian grammar and the artistic circles of the Catholic Monarchs' court. We will channel royal patronage toward poets, dramatists, and painters through the Real Casa and the chapters of the religious orders, providing the institutional support that Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Velázquez, and Calderón will require to produce their masterworks. This sustained cultural investment turns Spain into the literary and artistic capital of the Catholic world for two centuries.
