Abstract

The church of Saint Michael of Estella was redesigned in the sixteenth century, reflecting the coexistence of two artistic styles in this century in Navarra. On the one hand, the survival of the vaults of nerves of late Gothic tradition, with which the stonecutter Juan de Aguirre covered the central nave of the temple in 1539, according to the unpublished contract located in the parish archive. On the other hand, the introduction of the new Renaissance language through sculptural decoration, present in the decoration of the capitals, ornamentation that the craftsmen knew mainly through the use of engravings and treatises of classical architecture, such as the one of Diego de Sagredo or Vitruvius.
