The diplomacy of the Spanish Monarchy –a field traditionally restricted to political history- has recently aroused great interest on the part of specialists in the study os court society and of fine art. During the seventeenth century, governors, viceroys, ambassadors and cardinals acted not only as intermediaries for the artistic interests of the king of Spain, but also sought to emulate their own right. Research into the relationship between art and diplomacy has shown that, together with the artists themselves, the people who commissioned, collected, sold, and exchanged works of art played a fundamental role in the history of cultural expression. From their position of wealth and power they became arbiters of taste and fashion, and their intervention would be central to the process by which the work of certain artists and schools became sought after and disseminated across Europe
