Synopsis "Enciclopedia del Románico en Ávila (Enciclopedia del Románico en Castilla y León)"

The Romanesque Encyclopedia of Spain in Ávila is part of a 30 volume collection comprised of expertly written articles in Spanish, detailed photographs and brilliant illustrations of the Romanesque art and architecture found in the autonomous regions of Spain. This historical masterpiece is the culmination of decades of exhaustive studies of Romanesque monuments and art scattered throughout the Spanish countryside. There is no other work like this on earth that offers such a comprehensive look at this artistic style. The structure of each volume includes an introduction and prologue, texts that include information on location, historical documentation, sculptures, and a complete bibliography, as well as extensive graphic documentation including planimetry, floor plans and photographs, indexes, and appendices. Over $830,000 worth of encyclopedias has been sold. Many of the most prestigious national libraries and universities around Spain and the world possess a complete set such as The Medieval Studies Department of Cambridge University.
