The Museum's small but select collection of Spanish polychrome sculpture is displayed on the baluster gallery of the Vélez Blanco Patio. The sculptures, dating from the early sixteenth to the mid-seventeenth century, are augmented by groupings of Spanish decorative arts, displayed to reveal the varied strands of influence—Moorish, Flemish, and Italian Renaissance—that enriched the glittering and vibrant material culture of Renaissance Spain. Among the highlights are several goldsmiths' works reflecting the richness of the Iberian Peninsula after the silver fleet arrived from the newly explored American colonies.
