Resumen
This article explores the history and early iconography of the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception with particular
reference to the subject as found in the thirteenth-century wall paintings of the chapel of San Martín in the Old
Cathedral of Salamanca. It moves beyond this case study and looks at the theology, liturgy, iconography and changing
approaches to the theme over time and space and suggests that it was a subject that worked on multiple levels and encompassed
far more than has hitherto been believed. The role of the Crown of Castile during the initial stages of the development
of this subject deserves special attention, as it received, adapted and created images to express both immaculist
and maculist beliefs. Text is being published in two parts in two successive issues of Iconographica. The second part completes
the iconographic analysis of the wall paintings in Salamanca through the study of the Crucifixion represented in
the lower register in connection with the overall immaculist program. This part also explores the background that made
possible the creation of such an ensemble in Castile in a context of great reluctance towards the doctrine of the Immaculate
Conception, as proved by Alfonso X’s Cantigas de Santa María.
