Abstract

This paper is a continuation of the one published in the previous issue of this journal titled
“The Artistic Configuration of the Monastery of the Incarnation in Osuna during the Second Half of the 18th Century”. Whereas the aforementioned paper revolved around its artistic endowment, this research focuses on the precarious economic situation at the Monastery from 1807, which underwent economic hardships and a dearth of goods for decades due to the political situation in Spain at the time. Consequently, they were compelled to sell many of the silver objects and jewels they owned, including the ones that were destined to pay the taxes of the French invaders although it remains unknown the works of art that they actually plundered in Osuna. By the end of the 19th century, the economic situation improved, which allowed the replacement of the items that had been sold.
