Arch Of The Entrance Portal, Iglesia De San Pablo, Valladolid, Spain Stock Photography

The Iglesia conventual de San Pablo or San Pablo de Valladolid is a church and former convent, of Isabelline style, in the Spanish city of Valladolid in Castile and Leon. It is one of the buildings considered most emblematic of the city. The facade, designed by Simon de Colonia, was completed in 1500. Two phases can be distinguished in it: the first one, including the section up to the top of the central rose window, features gargoyles and sided by two spires. The entrance portal is surrounded by a large arch with a wavy profile, in which is a relief with the Coronation of the Virgin in the presence of bishop Alonso de Burgos. The upper part of the façade features rectangular spaces up the summit tympanum.
