Abstract
Spain was the haven of many northern artists in the fifteenth century. Architects, sculptors, and painters went there seeking employment in a country then rising to the status of a great international power. Flemish art held a pre-eminent position in Europe, and its influence on the art of Spain soon became paramount—not a surprising phenomenon in view of the naturalism inherent in the aesthetics of both countries.2 Toledo like Burgos and Seville had her full quota of immigrant artists.
