Summary:

"This documentary chronicles the dismantling of the apse from the twelfth-century church of San Martín in Fuentidueña, Spain, and its reconstruction between 1958 and 1961 at The Cloisters ... this film combines archival footage of the apse shot in situ, commentary by noted art historians of medieval Spain, and reminiscences fifty years later by members of the dismantling crew, to portray the history of this exquisite example of Romanesque architecture, part of an exchange loan agreement with the Spanish government. Featuring Museum curators Peter Barnet and Carmen Gómez-Moreno, architectural historian Jerrilynn Dodds and Museum scientist George Wheeler"--Back of container.
