SANCHEZ, José María e QUINONES, María Dolores. Imports of Artists' Materials to 16th-century America. An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2009, vol.31, n.95, pp.45-67. ISSN 0185-1276.
Painters established in the Americas during the sixteenth century demanded of Spain certain materials and instruments necessary for the development of their trades. Their demands centered basically on those that were difficult to obtain in the overseas territories and which could not be replaced by similar autochthonous products, or simply those which gave their works a metropolitan stamp. Like all foreign commodities required by the American market, supply was effected via the regular trade, that is, by means of the two fleets that departed annually from the quays of Seville; hence their presence has been evidenced from the records of cargoes which, for fiscal reasons, were drawn up by the Casa de la Contratación de Indias in that city.
