Paradigmas y fundamentos de la conflictiva relación entre la Comisión de Arquitectura y la ciudad de Sevilla (1786-1808)

Abstract

As of the publication of the Royal Decree of 1777 and the founding of the Commission of Architecture in 1786, the Royal Academy of San Fernando gained the faculty and the required resources to examine the structural projects delineated far and wide of the national territory. However, the implementation of these orders and the work of the academic commissioners didn't get the same results in all of the kingdoms that integrated the Spanish Crown, being the Kingdom of Seville one of the most reluctant to accept the new regulations. One opposition to the introductory process of the academic precepts in the architecture of the City of Seville whose reasons, circumstances and examples focus this paper.
