view of church interior - monument

Source caption: "Posiblemente el elemento artístico más valioso del interior de la iglesia, destacado en el arte funerario románico europeo (s. XIII). El esquema compositivo, la perfección de la talla, simbolísmo, empleo del baldaquino, etc. constituyen una joya del románico. Unos ángeles elevan el alma de una importante ¿dama?. Sobre el personaje, se atribuye a la iniciativa de Alfonso IX de León de sepultar en Zamora a su madre, Urraca de Portugal de la Orden de San Juan de Jerusalén."
