613 - Pórtico Majestad – Colegiata Santa María la Mayor – Toro (Zamora) - Spain.

            Aunque mi galería de “flickr” es de románico, no puedo resistirme a mostraros esta joya del arte gótico del siglo XIII, en la Colegiata de Santa María la Mayor de Toro (Zamora) – Spain.
Vemos la portada oeste, conocida como Pórtico de la Majestad; en el tímpano se contempla la Coronación de la Virgen, varias arquivoltas con Profetas, Ángeles, Mártires, Patriarcas y en la superior el Juicio Final.
Los personajes de las arquivoltas están representados de forma axial, muy diferentes a los de estilo románico de la portada norte que se representan de forma radial.
Destaca además de las bellas esculturas, la policromía original, siendo esta una de las más bellas y completas del arte universal.

Although my "flickr" gallery is Romanesque, I can not resist showing you this jewel of 13th century Gothic art, in the Collegiate Church of Santa María la Mayor de Toro (Zamora) - Spain.
We see the west facade, known as the Portico of the Majesty; in the tympanum the Coronation of the Virgin is contemplated, several archivolts with Prophets, Angels, Martyrs, Patriarchs and in the top the Final Judgment.
The personages of the archivolts are represented axially, very different from the Romanesque style of the north portal that is represented radially.
It also highlights the beautiful sculptures, the original polychrome, this being one of the most beautiful and complete universal art.
