Las mujeres y la Alhambra. Presencia femenina en espacios políticos, arquitectónicos, pictóricos y simbólicos

the Alhambra, as the main expression of the path of the Nasrid dynasty in history, was an en - clave where both men and women were present during the trajectory of the kingdom of Granada (13th-15th centuries). Despite their conscious historiographic «veiling», the latter had a considerable influence in both the political development and the spatial and aesthetic configuration of this palace. Therefore, its analysis and reconstruction are not possible today without the application of a gender perspective. Throughout this paper, we will try to identify the feminine presence in the political, architectural, pictorial, and symbolic fields at the Alhambra, in order to contribute to a better understanding of both the importance and the mark that Nasrid women left in this monument.
