La memoria visual de una dinastía. Pedro IV el Ceremonioso y la erótica de las imágenes en la Corona de Aragón (1336-1387)

King Peter IV of Aragon strategically employed multimedia to preserve and promote the legacy of his dynasty, creating symbolic spaces that emphasized royal legitimacy. The study reveals how he integrated visual art with literary works—such as in the Saló Tinell Room of Barcelona’s Royal Palace and Poblet Monastery’s Pantheon—to craft elaborate rhetorical environments. These spaces combined figurative programs with simultaneous auditory or textual elements, reinforcing the monarchy's symbolic significance through a sophisticated interplay of media. The research highlights how Peter IV leveraged art and architecture to construct a lasting visual memory of his reign, blending communication systems into immersive 'show locations' that underscored dynastic power.
