Convento de Santa Inés de Sevilla

This guide to the Convento de Santa Inés de Sevilla follows María Coronel, a noblewoman pursued by King Pedro the First after he had her father beheaded and her husband executed, and what she did to end his interest for good. You'll hear how she recovered her family's house and founded this convent in 1374, and how later sculptors like Francisco de Ocampo and Pedro Millán chose to depict the saint it is named for. It traces the seventeenth-century murals in the cloister and the courtyard frescoes, and what visitors can still see of María herself once a year.
