Pátio do castelo de Vélez Blanco

1506–15
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 534
O pátio de Velez Blanco, perto de Almeria, é uma joia arquitetônica. A estrutura reflete as origens espanholas do arquiteto que concebeu o projeto, como pode ser visto no arranjo assimétrico, nas gárgulas góticas, nas vigas do teto e nos arcos planos segmentais baixos. Os escultores do norte da Itália executaram os detalhes ornamentais renascentistas. Os arcos foram decorados com lindos desenhos florais, plantas e animais, assim como os pilares da balaustrada, portas e janelas. Apesar de sua complexidade, os motivos são caracterizados por formas claras, tridimensionalidade e naturalismo, tão típicos do início do Renascimento italiano.
