Resumen
Relaciones artísticas y comerciales entre Flandes y México
DE LOS SIGLOS XVI-XVIII
El complejo mundo que gira en tomo al intercambio comercial y artístico en-
tre Europa y el mundo Iberoamericano durante los siglos XVI-XVIII, presenta
enormes posibilidades de estudio; la navegación oceánica; la emigración, el in-
tercambio científico-tecnológico y cultural, el comercio, etc. El caso de los li-
bros, grabados, pinturas, tapicerías, textiles y objetos suntuarios producidos en
Flandes y enviados a Indias entre los siglos XVI y XVIII es un claro ejemplo de
estudio no sólo de las relaciones comerciales dentro del imperio español, sino
de la difusión, recepción e influencias artísticas flamencas que se hicieron sentir
al otro lado del Océano Atlántico. El objeto de este trabajo es esbozar generali-
dades de la especialización artística del mercado en Amberes y su creciente pre-
sencia, recepción, difusión, apropiación y adaptación de modelos artísticos fla-
mencos en la construcción del arte novohispano.
Summary
Artistic and Commercial Relations between Flanders and Mexico
from 16™ to 18th Century
The presence and circulation of Southern Netherlands’ values is a fascinating
subject with a lot of possibilities for the researchers: Graphic material - prin-
ted or manuscript - books, stamps and engravings, as well as paintings, tape-
stries, sculptures and textiles exported from Antwerp found their way to the
New World or even further, via Seville - the gateway to America. Today many
examples of Southern Netherland’s books and artistic objects can still be ad-
mired in Latin American and from Goa to Manila. The shifting character of
exchange in Antwerp affected also its market in luxury goods; this was booming
in the 16th century with the international patterns of trade established in the city
that facilitated the export of locally-made items to markets abroad. The expor-
tation of luxury goods through Spain was orientated not only to the privileged
social levels, but was now distributed on a much larger scale including the Spa-
nish monarchy and the middle classes who displayed a strong taste for Flemish
art. All these Flemish works were sold in fairs such as the one of Medina del
Campo, Barcelona, Valencia and Seville, and from this great Atlantic Metropo-
lis were sent to America or further.
