"Conquest of Granada on the Choir Stalls in Toledo Cathedral" Topic

I have collected some better photos of the wood carvings of scenes of the Conquest of Granada on the Lower Choir Stalls in Toledo Cathedral

The lower stalls were carved by Rodrigo Alemán between 1489 and 1495 and they tell the story of the re-conquest of Granada.

Features include:
Muslim governor surrenders Setenil,
Dismounted Spanish jinete at surrender of Vera,
Spanish hand-gunner and bowman outside Padul, 1491,
Ibrahim al Jerbi tries to kill Ferdinand and Isabella outside Guadix, 1487,
King Ferdinand receives surrender of Marbella, 1485,
Spanish jinete at surrender of Alora,
Assault on Alhama 1482.

Thank you for making these wonderful sources available!

Fantastic stuff for building my Spanish army. Thanks :-)

These carvings were done just a few years after the fall of Granada. The dress and armament had not changed much. They are one of the best sources for Spanish and Moorish soldiers of the late 15th and early 16th centuries.

Intriguing that Aleman appears to have started carving the stalls some years before the Fall of Granada in 1492
