The Nasrid Palaces are the real heart of the Alhambra, a masterpiece of universal art and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1984. Built throughout the 14th century, the Mexuar, the Palace of Comares and the Palace of the Lions, residences of the rulers of the Nasrid dynasty, are striking for the contrast between their austere exterior walls and the interior courtyards and rooms in which the artists gave free rein
to their talent, bringing together in harmony the tiled plinths, the mural plasterwork and the coffered ceilings, all with geometric, epigraphic and vegetal motifs.
This book shows how the harmony between architecture, decoration and water reaches the highest heights in the Nasrid Palaces.
