Summary
DescriptionEstandarte Liga Santa.gif |
Banner of the Holy League used in the Battle of Lepanto (1571). Scan of a printed reproduction of a watercolour painting by Rafael Monleón (1888) of a replica, 54 x 38 cm [1]. Under the (life-sized) depiction of the crucified Christ is the Ghislieri coat of arms of Pius V, flanked by those of Charles V (for Spain) on the left, the Republic of Venice on the right and of John of Austria (below), linked by chains. Reproducción del estandarte de la santa liga, que se conserva en la catedral de Toledo [viz. as of 1888], que llevaba la Galera Real de D. Juan de Austria. En el ángulo inferior izquierdo pone R. Monleón 1888. Es la copia del estandarte de la Santa Liga, que arboló don Juan de Austria a bordo de la galera real en la batalla de Lepanto (7 de octubre de 1571), conservado en la Santa Iglesia Catedral de Toledo. El original tiene las siguientes dimensiones: longitud 7,30 m, ancho en la vaina 4,42 m y en el exterior 3,27 m. Es de damasco azul recamado de oro, que remata en punta redonda, todo pintado al óleo, de lazos, ramos y hojas, y en medio la imagen de un Santo Crucifijo y debajo el escudo de armas del papa San Pío V, al lado derecho las de Venecia y al otro las del emperador Carlos V; debajo de las del Papa, las de don Juan de Austria; todos los escudos van entrelazados con cadenas simbolizando la unión de las potencias que formaron la Liga. El estandarte fue elaborado en Nápoles, siguiendo los criterios adoptados desde el siglo XV. El reverso está actualmente perdido a causa de las intervenciones sufridas a lo largo de los siglos para conservarlo. Provenance: Museo Naval de Madrid The Museo de Santa Cruz in Toledo keeps a different standard of the Holy League, formerly kept in the Cathedral of Toledo. Inv. No. DO1577. It is possible that Monleón's drawing, or the "replica" it was drawn from, was in fact only based on a verbal description of the standard in Toledo and does not accurately depict the historical artefact (?)
