Walls decorated with colourful Azulejo tiles and stucco, House of Pilate, Seville, Spain, 2007. Artist: Samuel Magal
Walls decorated with colourful Azulejo tiles and stucco, House of Pilate, Seville, Andalusia, Spain, 2007. The House of Pilate (Casa de Pilatos) is actually an exquisite palace. The order to build it was given by Pedro Enriquez, head governor of Andalusia, but his son, Don Fadrique Enriquez, sponsored the construction after returning from his trip to the Holy Land in 1519. The house was designed as a copy of the praetory of the procurator of Judea, Pontius Pilate. The architecture combines the Mudejar, Gothic and Renaissance styles, and the house was also decorated with Roman-Classical sculptures. The patio presents marble columns which support irregular arches decorated with elaborated Mudejar plaster works. The walls are profusely decorated with colourful Azulejo tiles and stucco.
