Ceramic bowl with golden reflection decoration from the site of Calatrava la Vieja in Carrión de Calatrava, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. This 13th-century masterpiece is a testament to Islamic craftsmanship during the Middle Ages. The bowl now resides in the esteemed collection of the Ciudad Real Museum, proudly bearing catalog number DO000146. Its rich history was meticulously captured through Reality Capture technology from 392 images. The Almohad period, spanning 1195-1212, played host to the creation of this exquisite piece. We extend our gratitude to the Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha and Global Digital Heritage for their collaborative efforts in digitizing the cultural heritage of Castilla-La Mancha. Special thanks are due to the Museum of Ciudad Real, particularly its director José Ignacio de la Torre, for his invaluable contribution to this project.
