Rodrigo de la Torre was a master stonemason whose main field of activity was the conservation and restoration of monuments. His work on numerous cathedrals, collegiate churches, churches and civil monuments in Castilla y Le\u00f3n, Arag\u00f3n, the Basque Country, Catalonia and the Valencian Community is a good example of this.<\/p>\n
The necessarily itinerant nature of his work during his more than 30 years in the trade led him to work mainly on site, adapting to the needs of each monument. For this reason he always worked with very different types of stone, the appropriate ones for each of the buildings in which he worked, which allowed him to know, study and master multiple procedures, techniques and finishes.<\/p>\n
