The Matron Of Murcia (La Matrona de Murcia)


This relief is on the facade of the Palace Almudí (see photo released yesterday).
The façade can be embossed medallion of breastfed of Murcia or Pósito of bread, by Hernando de Torquemada, who represents one-Murcia-breastfed who is nursing a child next to his, and that is significant symbol of hospitality of Murcia.
The relief is finished with a pelican, symbolizing abundance. (Source: here)
