Salamanca's glorious reredos
This splendid Gothic reredos is, in my opinion, one of Salamanca's greatest treasures. Finished in 1445, it is attributed to Nicolas Florentino, and comprises 53 individual scenes from the life of Christ and the Blessed Virgin.
The golden statuette is of the 12th-century Virgin of the Vega, patroness of Salamanca.
