Abstract
In 1923, Arthur Kingsley Porter published his ten volumes on Romanesque Sculpture of the Pilgrimage Roads. This paper takes its anniversary as a chance to look back to how the narrative constructed around Romanesque art in Iberia, the Way to Santiago, and the impact of the Islamic frontier developed and changed under different international and nationalistic scholarship and their agendas. Hopefully, it can also serve to critically reflect on the modes of current instrumentalization of medieval past in Spain’s public sphere and on the great value of Porter’s lessons on art history.
