Popis: | Carlos Luis de Ribera received and accepted the commission to paint the ceiling of the hemicycle of the new palace of the Madrid Congreso de los Diputados. A series of modifications were introduced into the original proyect designed by Ribera, which especially affected the final composition of the Apoteosis de los hombres célebres. Based on documents preserved in several archives, the present paper attempts to demonstrate when these modifications took place, who promoted them and how the end result of the composition influenced the construction of national identity, due to its presence in one of the chambers of representation of national sovereignty. |
