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.

Renaissance bronze bell, 1555. Dated. Stem decorated with plant elements, with shoulders decorated with elegant lines, the middle has profiles within plant garlands and two legends above and below in Latin. Bells were already used by Catholics to call the faithful from the 5th century, but their use in civil matters and in other religions is known to have been in Greek and Roman times. The decoration of this bell, made in relief, places it in the Renaissance due to its inspiration in Roman coins for the profiles and plant elements it presents. Likewise, the date of the body places the creation of the piece with certainty, in addition to adding value to it. The inscriptions prove its religious use.

Bad job. Watercolor. Signed in the lower left corner. José de San Bartolomé was a Spanish painter and sculptor who worked in the studio of the photographer Herbert from childhood and began his training at the School of Arts and Crafts in Madrid, continuing his studies at the Higher School of Painting at the Academy of San Fernando, while copying works by the masters of the Prado. In 1886 he settled in Paris, devoting himself mainly to genre painting in the wake of Fortuny, a theme that enjoyed great commercial success. He met Francisco Domingo, who opened the doors to the Buenos Aires market for him, where he received important commissions for painting and sculpture. He was Secretary of the Society of Artists of Paris, in 1894 he was named a knight of the Order of Charles III, in 1901 of the Legion of Honour and, in 1902, a commander of the Order of Isabel la Católica. At the beginning of the century he returned to Spain, and devoted himself mainly to portraiture, although he also painted landscapes and popular subjects. He enjoyed the protection of royalty, as evidenced by the portraits he painted of Queen Maria Cristina and various figures of the court. In 1925, the Paris Salon paid him a posthumous tribute with an exhibition of his work held in France. Works by Llaneces are preserved in the Prado Museum, the Pablo Sarasate Museum in Pamplona and in the Spanish embassy in Paris.
