Agüero - Iglesia de Santiago
The Iglesia de Santiago stands surrounded by macchia at the end of a dust road about a kilometer southeast of Agüero. This isolated place is probably why it is named as well "Ermita de Santiago".
It is a very strange structure and I did not have much information about. At one time within the 12th century somebody had started to build a pretty large basilica (- in the middle of nowhere). Obviously money was not an issue, as gifted sculptors and experienced builders left their marks here. Then - some decades later, the building process stopped, the church was never completed.
No wonder, that the artist/workshop known as "Master of San Juan de la Peña" is even better known under the name of "Master of Agüero". I had seen his works in San Juan de la Peña and Sangüesa, but what he created here are real masterpieces.
Here are the capitals from the left side, that depict music and dance.
To the very left the musician seems to tune the harp (Thank you Groenling!), while the female dancer seems to wait for him, to start. The person to the right is already playing the vieille. On the right capital is a hooded flautist, with a kind of double-flute, the flexible lady in the center performs an ecstatic dance. Her long hair flow over the ground.
