Door knocker. Wrought iron. 16th century. Door knocker made of wrought iron and made up of several pieces, among which the main one stands out. It has two bands that start in parallel and then separate to form two facing volutes joined in this area by a rectangular piece, also showing several engraved lines that highlight these elements. The use of wrought iron volutes was common since Romanesque times, and we can speak of an evolution in this element over time. The present example belongs, due to its shape, to a type of handle or knocker known as “scissor”.

Monk's armchair. Leather, wood. Spain, 16th century. It has flaws and requires restoration. Armchair with arms and high backrest of the type known as “frailero”, which has leather with studs on the upper part of the backrest and on the seat, low chambranes with a cut-out profile joining the front legs with the back ones and middle chambranes or side rails (the front one carved and cut out creating geometric motifs) joining the two front legs and the two back ones, and simple armrests. The friar's chair, initially of Italian origin, became one of the most common pieces of Spanish furniture since its introduction in the 16th century, being characteristic of this and the 17th century and being recovered again in the historicist movement of the 19th century. Being such a deep-rooted tradition in Spain, this type of model was never stopped being created.

Devotional medal of Saint Nicholas on a support. Gilt bronze, textile, metal. 18th century. Devotional medal in gilded bronze placed on a support with wires that presents an oval frame enhanced with a crest with vegetal elements in a symmetrical composition and another top below also with vegetal elements and scrolls, and the figure of a saint inside this smooth frame. Standing, holding a staff in one hand and raising the other in a gesture of blessing, is a male figure dressed in liturgical attire, accompanied by some small figures praying, placed in a barrel or bucket. Saint Nicholas of Myra or Bari was a bishop who died around the middle of the 4th century AD. One of his most famous miracles was his resurrection of three children (shown in this work) sacrificed by an innkeeper to feed his clients. Although he was bishop of the city of Myra, he is shown here wearing liturgical vestments but without the usual headdress (mitre). The three spheres that appear on the book would allude to the miracle in which the saint helps the father of three girls to gather a dowry for them (as they are three golden spheres).

View of Palencia, Monzón Gate. Oil on canvas. Spanish School (A. Rodriguez), 19th century. It has damage. Landscape showing a town or city wall in the foreground and a tower with a bell gable in the background on the right, accompanied by houses, etc. This type of scene and its workmanship (brush strokes, colours, fondness for ruins, etc.) were common in 19th century European schools, in line with a series of postulates and tastes that arose, in large part, thanks to pictorial Romanticism. The image shows the Puerta del Monzón in the walls of Palencia, with the city's cathedral in the background, in a way very close to how it could be seen in 19th century paintings and in engravings such as a lithograph from volume 9 of the series “Memories and beauties of Spain” (Lithograph "Puerta de Monzón (Palencia)". Taken from nature by FX Parcerisa; lithographed by S. Isla. Lit. by J. Donon, [1861]).
