Plateresque refers to the 15th and 16th century art form in Spain, characterized by an ornate style of architecture. This form was soon tranferred to Spanish-owned colonies in America. The terms means, "in the manner of a silversmith." Distinct examples of the style include the cathedral of Granada (1523-1703), the Monterrey Palace in Salamanca, and the facade of the University of Madrid. The artistic form is derived from the work of the Italian Renaissance.
