Abstract

This work has a double target: in first place, to give birth to one of the last orders performed by the Grenadine workshops for the territories of Murcia, specially the great tabernacle which, till 1936, occupied the major chapel at Lorca College. This workis, without any doubt, singular of the full baroque. furthermore, if there is a piece belonging to the ecclesial trousseau which unifesand fixes the eyes of the whole congregation –taking apart the intrinsic dignity of this temple– that is, without doubts, its canopy ortabernacle, the one which presides the major chapel. That is the reason why their managers did their very best to let it have the highest possible nobility.

In second place, we offer a brief biographical outline of its author, the Grenadine Juan López de Almagro, master assembler, sculptor and cabinetmaker, which identity was up to date unknown.
