Question

Owen Jones made innovative chromolithographs (10[1])of this complex that influenced his interiors for the Crystal Palace. This complex’s niches once held large blue-and-gold vases unique in the region for being only decorative. This complex’s Gate of Justice is in the region’s style of horseshoe arch and leads to a patio of myrtles surrounded by arcades with stucco sebka (10[1])designs. During a 1936 visit, M. C. Escher copied this building’s tessellations. (10[1])Halls with stalactite-work vaults called muqarnas surround a space in this complex where a fountain sits (10[1])on 12 marble animals. The Court of the Lions is the central citadel (-5[2])of this Nasrid complex, which like the Royal Alcázar inspired the fusion of Mudéjar art after the Reconquista. (-5[1])For 10 points, name this “Moorish-style” (10[1])palace in Granada. ■END■ (10[2]0[1])
