Alhajar una casa, vestir a una marquesa. Lujo y magnificencia de las piezas suntuarias en la Castilla del siglo XV

Abstract

The sumptuary arts played a very important role in the transition to Modernity in Europe, a period where power, luxury and magnificence were displayed through rich pieces, many of which transcended their own monetary value. The case of the trousseau of the Marquise del Cenete, Leonor de la Cerda, contextualizes the problem very well.
