Description
Arcaduz of well; Nasrid or Mudejar period, XV. XVI A.D. Ceramic. Measurements: 22 x 8,5 cm. Arcaduz made of ceramic, which has a cylindrical body in which certain grooves can be seen. This type of objects also known as waterwheel bucket, were vessels used to transport the water in a waterwheel. There are several types of this type of objects, which were made of metal, wood and, as in this case, ceramics. The Nasrid or Nasri is the name given to the last Muslim dynasty that ruled the Kingdom of Granada between 1238 and 1492, and, by extension, to this period of Hispano-Muslim art. His art was characterized by its originality within the Spanish Gothic panorama, and also presented in some works a clear influence of both this European style and the Renaissance. The most characteristic example of Nasrid art is the Alhambra, where the skill of Nasrid artists can be appreciated.
