Views from the Guadalquivir, SEVILLE

Art print from the Spain Series. Seville seen from the Guadalquivir

Since the discovery of America, Seville became the port of entry to Spain from the New Continent. The Catholic Monarchs founded the Casa de Contratación de Indias, based in Seville from 1503 to 1717.
From there, trips were directed and contracted, the wealth entering from America was controlled, and commercial, scientific, and judicial relations with the New World were regulated.
This led to a great urban expansion, with Seville exceeding 100,000 inhabitants, and becoming the largest city in Spain and the best urbanized at the time.
