Unas notas sobre los artistas de la villa de Noya en la primera mitad del siglo XVIII

The village of Noya, located in the southwest of the province of La Coruña, was an important artistic center during the eighteenth century, coming second to the city of Santiago de Compostela. Thanks to the works and reforms in the temples promoted by the different parishes or sponsored by the pious associations, the artists from Noya moved around the Galician geography in order to attend the high demand of necessary patrimony that furnished the churches. Thus, it would be desirable to provide some information about their existence, to understand their origin, their relationship with their colleagues and to know how to place them in some sagas where succeed a good number of artists, whose work has yet to be studied in depth.
