Resumo

This article attempts to contextualise the epitaphium sepulcrale of Fernando III, preserved in the royal chapel of Seville Cathedral, in the epigraphic production promoted by Alfonso X throughout his reign. To this end, we analyse the particularities of a set of monumental inscriptions from Seville, noting certain ornamental and palaeographic analogies with the monumentum aedificationis of the royal shipyards erected by Alfonso X around 1252. In Alphonsine epigraphic production, recurrent and elaborate ideological messages are evident, the common denominator of which was the projection of a specific imago regis, transforming the epigraph into yet another propagandistic instrument at the service of the sovereign's interests
