Church of Saint Lawrence, El Escorial |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| The church of Saint Lawrence at El Escorial in Spain was designed by 16th-century Spanish architect Juan de Herrera. Its simple design is in striking contrast to the ornate styles that preceded it in Spanish architecture. The royal complex of El Escorial combines the austerity of a monastery with the splendor of a palace. | ||||||
