Chapel of the Immaculate Conception. Sculpture, carved wood, glass, metal. Second half of the 18th century. A carved wooden chapel with decoration on the upper part of the railing and balusters in the shape of a vase reminiscent of the Baroque, which has three of its four fronts in transparent glass and stands slightly on circular legs. Inside, one can see a gold background (on the fourth front of the chapel, highlighting a carved and polychrome plant composition), and a polychrome sculpture of the Immaculate Conception surrounded by alternating flat and wavy and pointed and circular rays of light. The carving stands on a pedestal, and has a white tunic and a blue cloak; Mary stands on the Orb of Creation, in which a snake appears (linked to Sin). The carving shows a clear influence from Spanish Baroque models, as well as certain details such as the posture that can be linked to Neoclassicism. This mixture and the maintenance of the Baroque influence are common in 18th century Spanish sculpture.
