Abstract

The old school of Saint Andrew in Bilbao is a foundation of the Society of Jesus which took place in the early 17th century. As such, it presented an iconographic program according to the tenets of the order, which was altered in the late 18th century when the Saints Johns parish was established on their premises. In that original iconographic program was potentiated, above any other message, the glory of God and the exaltation of the order itself through its most representative saints.
