Jewels in Spain: 1500-1800

Jewels in Spain 1500 - 1800
( Features images, techniques, materials and producers of...)
Features images, techniques, materials and producers of the jewels made in Spain and in the New World, in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. Includes images of many jewels that have never before been published. In effect, this book, which features numerous pictures, has remained an essential work of reference for the study of Spanish jewelry during the reign of the Hapsburg and Bourbon Dynasties, extending as far as the rule of Charles IV. However, in spite of its importance, the work is only now being published in English. Forty years have passed since Dr. Muller completed the book and, in all this time, her monographic work has lost none of its relevance, continuing to be an excellent basic guide for the study of a fundamental aspect of Spanish art. However, it is quite impossible to find Jewels in Spain: 1500-1800 today. For this reason, Ediciones El Viso has undertaken the task of carefully republishing the work, as revised and updated by the author, featuring new pictures based on photographs taken expressly for the purpose at hand and reproduced in full color.
