# St James of Compostela [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UNKNOWN MASTER, Spanish]() - Date: 1151-1200 - Technique: Stone ## Commentary The outside of the Romanesque church of Santa Maria de Tera in Spain is interesting because of the combination of colours caused by the mixture of greyish and yellowish tones on its ashlar blocks. Amongst its sculptures, one stands out especially - a 12th century sculpture on the south façade, which represents the apostle St James dressed as a pilgrim with staff and scallop shell. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Magi \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Altarpiece of the Virgin]() - [Annunciation]() - [Coronation of Mary]() - [Crucifix]() - [Crucifix]() - [Depiction of pilgrims]() - [Doña María de Perea]() - [Don Garcia da Osorio \(detail\)]() - [Don Garcia da Osorio]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
