Cette immense et très élaboré plateau de table, est de par son design à rapprocher de l’un des plus importants plateau de table aujourd’hui conservé dans la Collection Royale Espagnole, le fameux tablero de Felipe II. Publié par Gonzalez-Palacios comme provenant d’un atelier romain de la fin du XVIe siècle, il fut offert en cadeau diplomatique par le neveu du pape Pie V, le cardinal Alessandrino, à Philippe II d’Espagne en 1587 (Madrid, loc. cit.). Deux ans plus tard, il fut envoyé dans l’une des résidences favorites du Roi à l’Alcazar.
Dans son introduction sur le tablero, Gonzales-Palacios rapproche ce design complexe et très géométrique, à d’autres œuvres connues dont l’escritorio de Sixtus V (Stourhead, England) et à un plateau conservé dans la collection du duc de Westminster (ibid., p. 62).
This large and elaborate table top is closely related in its design to one of the most important pietra dura tables in the Spanish Royal Collection, the so-called Tablero de Felipe II. Published by Gonzalez-Palacios as coming from a Roman workshop in the later 16th century, the table top was given as a diplomatic gift to Philip II of Spain by Pope Pius V’s nephew, Cardinal Alessandrino in 1587 (Madrid, loc. cit.). Taking two years to arrive, it was originally sent to one of the king’s favourite residences, the Alcazar.
The fame of the Tablero rests not only on its size and the fact that it is inlaid exclusively with very hard and precious stones, but in its rarity as a product of Roman workshops, which preceded the great flowering of pietra dura workshops in Florence in the later 16th and 17th centuries.
