| Sumario: | [EN]The festivals held in the Valencian town of san Felipe (now Xàtiva) in 1789 for the proclamation of Charles IV deserve an in-depth study that has not yet been undertaken. Of all the celebrations held on that occasion, this article focuses on the thanksgiving procession held on the last day of the festival. Specifically, the focus is on the design and creation of triumphal chariots and altars, as well as the masking of the façades of the main buildings. To this end, we have worked meticulously on the archival documentation, as well as drawing on a visual repertoire, partially unpublished, which highlights the singularity of the case in question. All in all, this article agrees with the research that has found in the festivals and in the artistic manifestations derived from it the way to extol the royal power, counting on the complicity of the people. |
