Description
Abstract
El presente artículo tiene por objeto el estudio de la problemática en torno a la saga de los Lacasa, una familia de artistas borjanos a la que pertenece el escultor Simón Diego Lacasa Castro (*1708-†1764), identificado tradicionalmente como el autor de la escultura de San Miguel, titular de esta iglesia parroquial de Borja (Zaragoza) y de notabilísimo mérito artístico. Ahora, nuevas fuentes documentales le adjudican una serie de obras encargadas en su ciudad natal, pero un análisis crítico de los textos parece apuntar a que la autoría de la mayor parte corresponda a otro escultor llamado Diego Lacasa, quizá su padre.
Abstract: The purpose of the present article is to study problems surrounding the Lacasa dynasty, a family of artists from Borja to which the sculptor Simón Diego Lacasa Castro (*1708-†1764) belonged. He has traditionally been identified as the author of the sculpture of St. Michael, to whom the parish church of San Miguel at Borja (Zaragoza) is dedicated, a work of notable artistic merit. Now, new documentary sources assign to him a series of works commissioned in his native city, but a critical analysis of the texts would seem to suggest that most of them correspond to another artist called Diego Lacasa, perhaps his father.
