This is the first study wholly devoted to reception of Spanish art in Britain and Ireland. Focusing on Spanish art from the Golden Age to Goya, these studies chart the growth in understanding and
appreciation of the Spanish School, and its punctuation by controversies and continuing distrust of religious images in Protestant Britain, as well as by the successive ‘discoveries’ of individual
artists – Murillo, Velázquez, Ribera, Zurbarán, El Greco and Goya. It includes publishes important new research on art importation, collecting and dealing, and discusses the increase in access to and scholarship on works of art. It also considers for the first time the role of women in reflecting taste for the arts of Spain.
