AB This article explores the origins and distinctive features of Castilian tabernaclealtarpieces.Less attention will be paid to the well-known examples of the fourteenthcentury (as for example the Castildelgado and Yurre altarpieces) and thefocus will be on a number of poorly preserved, fragmented and altered examplesof the late thirteenth century, for which proposals of reconstruction are providedin some instances. To investigate the origins of Castilian tabernacle-altarpieces,this study centres on several thirteenth-century sculptures that were made prominentby being placed either before back panels or within baldachins. These displaysare usually regarded as the forerunners of genuine tabernacle-altarpieces. Inthis context, special attention is paid to the images of the Virgin and Child in thechurch of Villalcázar de Sirga (Palencia). Concerning the distinctive features ofCastilian tabernacle-altarpieces, the text points out the relationship between theearliest tabernacle-altarpieces and the locally produced monumental and tombsculpture, which in all likelihood served as a model for these early altarpieces.
