Agüero - Iglesia de Santiago
I had been here before and I have uploaded many photos already in 2013, but I just had to return to this church. And add some more photos..

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 capitals of the portal´s right side. A female dancer, flanked by two musicians. To the right is a flautist and another very flexible dancer.

You´ll find more photos in the album "Aragon".
