Cantería gótica, iglesia de Santiago Apóstol, Jerez de la Frontera, 2016.

At the time the photo was taken, the church was undergoing extensive restoration, in some measure because a highly erodible stone had been used in its construction. Such stone makes elaborate carving less difficult, but it does not withstand the elements well.

Cathedral of Santo Domingo de la Calzada, Spain (No. 2)

The building that is now contemplated as the co-cathedral of Santo Domingo de la Calzada is, really, an amalgam of different styles ranging from the Romanesque of its head to the baroque of its genuine free-standing bell tower, passing through its body of naves, which can be classified as fully Gothic. To all this we must add the different reforms and extensions that it suffered during the Modern Age as a result of restorations, collapses or, simply, by the changes that each bishop was making to adapt the see to the tastes and fashions of each historical moment.​

Several modifications were made to the original plant, adding:

in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries: the naves, defenses and portico of the west façade;

in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries: the chapels of the apse, of the Immaculate and the two in sections 2 and 3 of the south façade;

in the seventeenth century the baptistery of the section of the feet;

in the eighteenth century, the south portal;

the tower, original of the twelfth century, was rebuilt in the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries; the latter in the current location.
