Abstract

Este artículo analiza un caso excepcional en la carpintería de armar en España. Se trata del artesonado de cinco paños de la iglesia de Santa María del Río, en Castroverde de Campos (Zamora). Construido en el s. XVI, con una trama de artesones poligonales en su intradós, combina el diseño renacentista con la tradición técnica hispano-musulmana de estructuras de madera, y presenta aportaciones novedosas como la inusual disposición de escuadrías, la duplicidad de estructuras y las poco ortodoxas uniones carpinteras utilizadas. Además, la introducción de artesones convexos junto a los convencionales artesones cóncavos le confiere un marcado aspecto manierista y resuelve ingeniosamente el encuentro entre paños. La muy posible coincidencia de diseñador y constructor en la misma persona explicaría un proceso de construcción con módulos prefabricados, con el consiguiente ahorro de costes y riesgos laborales.

Summary

HISTORICAL FRAMEWORK

The rich tradition of wooden carpentry ceilings in the Iberian Peninsula would be strongly influenced by the forms which came from Italy upon the arrival of the Renaissance in the sixteenth century. Many examples of this built heritage are still standing in the region of Tierra de Campos (1). Wooden ceilings covered parish churches at important towns of the time such as Castroverde, as well as small village temples, most of them made of brick walls. That would date the work between 1570-1590
