AB This article studies the representation of warfare in thirteen-century Spanish kingdoms andin two specific fields: that of illuminated manuscripts, exemplified by Alfonso X the Wise’sCantigas de Santa María, and the depictions rendered in the cycles of mural paintings atthe Royal Palace of Barcelona and the Caldes’s palace. In the Cantigas, warfare is but apretext to offer a Marian miracle, which links this codex to past religious observances.Troops are presented in a plastic conventional fashion, which also accounts for the absenceof the figure of the king himself. In contrast, the mural cycles at Barcelona deal with historical painting with quite a different narrative style, lay and more modern, which tries todepict concrete events and to exalt the role of the monarch, probably James I’s exploits.
