The Mudéjar Craftsmen

Since our Mudéjar subjects secured the right to govern their own aljama, the self-ruled community that keeps its own markets, courts, and trades, under charter and privilege, their master builders, tilers, and plasterers have grown bolder in showing what their hands can do, blending horseshoe arches and carved stucco with the forms our own masons favor. Commissioning them for a palace wing or a garden pavilion would announce, in stone and plaster, that the charter we granted was no empty gesture. Not every bishop or baron will see it that way, and our Clergy rarely miss a chance to grumble about it.

historical_info = d009_convivencia.4.historical_info Mudéjar art and architecture, the style produced by Muslim craftsmen working under Christian rule, blending horseshoe arches, geometric tilework, and carved stucco with Gothic and Romanesque forms, flourished across Castile and Aragon precisely because Christian monarchs actively commissioned it. The Alcázar of Sevilla, built for King Pedro I in the 1360s largely by Mudéjar craftsmen from Granada and Toledo, remains the most celebrated example of this royal patronage.
