Abstract

The Luis González Bailén is presented by historiography as a reputed stonemason and key figure in the triumph and diffusion of marbles and jaspes in large-scale constructions. However, only tangential and brief biographical contributions help to draw a catalog of his participation both in architectural work and in monumental sculpture during the first third of the seventeenth century. We contribute here to systematize his participation as a stonemason, to make known his proposal for the rehabilitation of the family burial and the traces of the tomb of the Duke of Sessa and Baena and to attribute certain accomplishments to him.
