EL COMERCIO DE OBJETOS ARTÍSTICOS ENTRE SEVILLA Y AMÉRICA (1927-1928)

Abstract

The export of works of art and craftwork to America in the years immediately prior to the Ibero-­American Exhibition of 1929, was concentrated on the Southem states of the U.S.A and the most famous markets of the North East.

Most of the merchandise was decorative, and of no great artistic value, but it is interesting to observe the taste for things Spanish as revealed by the Customs documents included here, which mainly deal with domestic objects and handcrafts.
