This international congress, titled 'Sevilla y Corte. Las Artes y el Lustro Real (1729-1733)', investigated the profound effects of King Felipe V's presence and his court in Seville over a five-year period (1729-1733). The event aimed to study the historical, political, and economic implications of this royal residence, linking them to the significant and previously unparalleled development of the fine arts during what is known as the 'Royal Lustrum'. The congress highlighted how the king's extended stay in Seville attracted prominent intellectuals and artists, including French painter Jean Ranc, Italian artist Andrea Procaccini, composer Domenico Scarlatti, and choreographer Michel Gaudrau. This massive arrival of talent notably influenced the Andalusian fine arts, which had been somewhat detached from contemporary European trends, and permanently reshaped the regional art market. The session held at the Museo del Traje specifically focused on decorative arts and daily life during this era. It featured interventions by experts such as Fernando Martín and Concha Herrero from Patrimonio Nacional, Jesusa Vega from the Museo Lázaro Galdiano and Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Álvaro Molina from the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, and Amalia Descalzo from the Museo del Traje. C.I.P.E. This colloquium offered a detailed look into the material culture and lifestyle associated with the royal court in Seville.
This event took place on May 8, 2007, in the assembly hall of the Museo del Traje. Further ticketing or admission details are not provided for this historical event, as it was organized in collaboration with Casa de Velázquez and Universidad Pablo de Olavide de Sevilla.
