Popis: | This study is focused on vernacular features from eclectic architecture from the Colombian tropics, particularly on the San Jeronimo de Monteria Cathedral, one of the most important architectural symbols from this Colombian city. During the 19th and early 20th centuries, architecture in Europe and America was characterized by a resumption of historical styles, generally called ‘revivals’, and the blend of these, ‘eclecticism’. Montería was no stranger to this situation, also assisted by national and international migrations into the territory and the adaptation of local vernacular techniques. This cathedral is explored as an example where elements from vernacular tradition are recognized, which guaranteed the operation of foreign models, especially in the bioclimatic functioning of this tropical region. |
