José Nogales Sevilla
José Valentín Nogales y Sevilla (3 November 1860, Málaga - 28 November 1939, Málaga) was a Spanish painter and watercolorist, associated with the Málaga School of Painting. He specialized in landscapes and scenes that involved flowers. Biography He was born to a working-class family and, at the age of eighteen, had to take a job as an assistant in the local railway office rather than pursue his education. During this time, he attended night classes in drawing at the Academy of Fine Arts in San Telmo, taught by Bernardo Ferrándiz, who noted his exceptional abilities with watercolors. In 1888, he became a teaching assistant there, and was later promoted to full teacher; primarily of artistic drawing. After that, he was named a Professor at the Elementary School of Industry and Fine Arts. Between 1902 and 1903, he temporarily served as Director there, and made the acquaintance of Antonio Muñoz Degrain, who had a significant influence on his mature style. Degrain also ur ...

Real Academia De La Historia
The Real Academia de la Historia (RAH, 'Royal Academy of History') is a Spanish institution in Madrid that studies history "ancient and modern, political, civil, ecclesiastical, military, scientific, of letters and arts, that is to say, the different branches of life, of civilisation, and of the culture of the Spanish people". The Academy was established by royal decree of Philip V of Spain on 18 April 1738. Building Since 1836 the Academy has occupied an 18th-century building designed by the neoclassical architect Juan de Villanueva. The building was originally occupied by the Hieronymites, a religious order. It became available as a result of legislation in the 1830s confiscating monastic properties (the ecclesiastical confiscations of Mendizábal). Collections As formerly the main Spanish institution for antiquaries, the Academy retains significant libraries and collections of antiquities, which cannot be seen by the public. The keeper of antiquities is the prehistorian Mar ...

Saint Casilda
Saint Casilda of Toledo ( es, Santa Casilda de Toledo) (950–1050) is venerated as a saint of the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church. Her feast day is April 9th. Casilda was a Muslim princess, the daughter of the ruler of Toledo. She showed great kindness to Christian captives. Like Elizabeth of Hungary and Elizabeth of Portugal, the Miracle of the roses was attached to her legend. While Casilda supposedly predated both Elizabeths, her hagiography was not written until three centuries after her death, and is likely influenced by the story of one of them. Life According to her legend, St. Casilda, a daughter of a Muslim king of Toledo, ( Yahya ibn Ismail Al-Mamun), showed great compassion for Christian prisoners by frequently smuggling bread into the prison, hidden in a basket concealed in her clothes, to feed them. Once, she was stopped by her father and his Muslim soldiers, and asked to reveal what she was carrying in her skirt. When she began to show them, the ...
