The life of Andrés de Vandelvira
Andrés de Vandelvira was born in the province of Albacete most likely in the year 1505, but there is no document that specifies the exact date. Andrés spent most of his life in the province of Jaén; mostly in the cities of Ubeda and Cuenca. Vandelvira began working in Jaén between 1523 and 1529, gaining his training as a stonemason. After he was married he started to appear in documents from 1529. He worked in a group. The master stonemason was Francisco de Luna, his father-in-law.
