The Sevillian Palace of the Adelantados Mayores of Andalusia, better known as the Casa de Pilatos, a combination of Italian Renaissance and Spanish Mudé-jar styles, is the most outstanding example and the prototype of an Andalusian palace. Even though it was essentially built between the 15th and 16th centuries, it encompasses five centuries of Spanish architectural history within its spaces five centuries during which successive generations built, destroyed, and modified its structures in response to changes in social and aesthetic habits. Throughout this process, Mudejar elements were overlaid with Renaissance, Baroque, and even Romantic features, creating a palimpsest of difficult interpretation. Howe­ver, today, a meticulous restoration that has preserved traces of its various stages allows a better understanding of the building. The present volume, based on new documents and new hypotheses, constitutes an extended revision of the monograph on the palace that we published in 1998. Aspects such as the evolution of the courtyard or the construction of the magni­ficent staircase have thus been reconsidered, while new information has been in-corporated about the successive owners of the house and their exceptional art collections.
