Abstract
It is well known the commercial relationship that existed between Seville and America during the XVIth century which also applied to the artistic market. During this century Seville saw the flourishing of a number of workshops that provided the New World with religious sculptures. Some of these works were made at specifi c requests of the religious institutions of America, others were made to be sold in the American market and some of them were made using mass production techniques.
