Garcia-Omedes [http://www.arquivoltas.com/15-Burgos/02-Uzquiano.htm] [accessed 13 January 2019]
Font Notes:
Baptismal font listed and illustrated in López de Guereñu [https://photo.araba.eus/s/photoaraba/item/65982] [accessed 2 August 2024]: "Pila bautismal de la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción de Uzquiano en el Condado de Treviño. Vista frontal de una pila bautismal sencilla; presenta copa lisa, basa cuadrangular y pie decorado con relieves en los extremos". The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/burgos_UZQUIANO.pdf] [accessed 2 August 2024] describes the different in detail the different changes made to this building by the incorporation of elements from elsewhere; it does not, however, mention a font in it. In an e-mail of 11 January 2019 to BSI Pedro Novella wrote: "La pila de la iglesia de Uzqiano (Condado de Treviño, Burgos) es muy curiosa. La iglesia tiene dos portadas románicas. Una de ellas, la de la derecha, la bajaron de la iglesia en ruinas del pueblo de Otxate y la adosaron a la iglesia. Entre la portada y el muro de la iglesia que quedaba un pequeño hueco y lo aprovecharon para colocar la pila bautismal. Al ser el espacio tan reducido los asistentes al bautizo no podían ver como el cura le echaba el agua al niño. A alguien se le ocurrió poner un espejo en el techo así la gente podía ver al niño en el espejo." The web site of Ramón Escobar Hervás [https://maravillasdeespana.blogspot.com/2018/11/burgos-el-condado-de-trevino-y-su_4.html] [accessed 13 January 2019] informs: a baptismal font has been located in the new space created in 1964 by the installation of the portal originally from the nearby church of Ochate / Otxate; the font, which appears to have been drastically cleaned, consists of a plain hemispherical basin raised on a round-to-square pedestal with the top of the breach stops decorated, and a chamfered square lower base. There is no cover present.
