- Title
LOS LACASA: UNA SAGA DE ESCULTORES ARAGONESES DEL SIGLO XVIII.
- Authors
Aguilera Hernández, Alberto
- 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.
