The Arlanza Gryphon, MNAC

The Arlanza Gryphon, MNAC

Fresco transferred to canvas, 189.5 × 322 cm, c. 1210. From a former Benedictine monastery in San Pedro de Arlanza, in the Province of Burgos, Spain, dating to around 1210. Think about the size and the transfer of a fresco to canvas. This picture also evoked very strongly for me, the works of William Blake - the style and the colours. Maybe he was a Spanish church painter in a previous life.
