| Summary: | Among the decorative capitals of the Santiago de Compostela’s cathedral, there is one at the end of the south transept nave, that can be identified as the image of Saint James apostle. On the one hand, this interpretation is supported by the studies of the iconography of the Apostol of the XII thc. On the other hand, the location where it is represented, an inner portico, located just behind of the north gate of the cathedral, has been taken into account. The third reason is the context in which it has been built in, together with other historiated capitals, and all as being part of the whole decoration of this postliminal space. The purpose is based on the semon s written in the Liber Sancti Iacobi. |
