Aunque está ampliamente difundida en la historiografía la identificación del apelativo “cruz de Oviedo” con la cruz de los Ángeles, no es a esta a la que dedicaremos nuestro estudio, sino a aquella cruz singular que, por aparecer inicialmente representada en la escultura y pintura decorativas de edificios del ámbito de la monarquía asturiana, y después ser plasmada en numerosos manuscritos altomedievales, la primera historiografía relativa a la miniatura hispánica comenzó a denominar “cruz de Oviedo”.
Although the identification between “cross of Oviedo” with the cross of the Angels is widespread in historiography, our study will not be based on this second one, but on that one single cross, which initially appeared as represented in decorative sculpture and painting of buildings in the scope of the Asturian monarchy, and was later embodied in numerous medieval manuscripts, and for that reason, the earliest historiography regarding Hispanic miniature began to call it “cross of Oviedo”.
