The horseshoe arch (arco de herradura), very used in Islamic art, also in Magreb, is roman, not arab or berber.

yeah but it isn't very used by Castillians

anyway moorish art looks nothing like "christian" art
different ethnic groups have different tastes and crate different arts

in my opinion the average spaniard wouldn't find it beautiful(many colors and forms) it would be too "cantoso" for them
