Museum of Art & Popular Costume
By Josephine Quintero
Located in the Mudejar Pavilion of the 1920 Ibero-American
exhibition devoted to the popular arts and traditions of Andalucia.
There are exhibitions held in the basement here, including a permanent
series of workshop scenes detailing crafts, such as leatherwork,
ceramics and cooperage.
There is also an informative history of Seville's
distinctive tile work while upstairs is a display of 19th century
costumes, accessories, furniture, musical instruments and rural
machinery. Romantic images of bullfighting, flamenco, Semana Santa
and the April fair are also here, providing an evocative representation
of those aspects of the culture and tradition which help make this
city so special.
