En torno al cardenal Don Gil Álvarez de Albornoz y el platero sienés Andrea Petrucci: el relicario de la mano de Santa Lucía y el cáliz de San Segundo

Este artículo trata de la complicada y hasta ahora inédita historia de la llegada a España de dos obras cumbres de la orfebrería sienesa del s. XIV en plata con esmaltes translúcidos: el relicario de la mano de Santa Lucía en la catedral de Toledo y el cáliz de San Segundo en la catedral de Ávila. La importación de estos dos importantísimos objetos devocionales y litúrgicos, ambos firmados por el platero sienés Andrea Petrucci, est�� relacionada con la estancia en Italia del cardenal don Gil de Albornoz, arzobispo de Toledo y posteriormente cardenal de San Clemente y Santa Sabina y legado papal. El mecenazgo del cardenal castellano y de su círculo en Italia explica la comisión y adquisición de estas piezas, cuyos accidentados itinerarios desembocarían finalmente en Toledo y en Ávila.
