Question

Owen Jones made innovative chromolithographs of this complex that influenced his interiors (10[1])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 designs. During a 1936 visit, M. C. Escher (10[2])copied this building’s (10[2])tessellations. (10[1])Halls with (10[1])stalactite-work (10[1])vaults called muqarnas surround a space in this complex where a fountain sits on 12 marble animals. The Court of the Lions (10[1])is the central citadel of this Nasrid (10[1])complex, which like the Royal Alcázar inspired the fusion of Mudéjar art after the Reconquista. For 10 points, name this “Moorish-style” palace in Granada. ■END■ (10[1])
