EspañolHISPANIC SOCIETY OF AMERICA
(Redirected from The Hispanic Society of America)
The 'Hispanic Society of America' is a museum of Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin American art and artifacts, as well as a rare books and manuscripts research library. Founded in 1904 by Archer M. Huntington, the institution is free and open to the public at its original location in a Beaux Arts building on Audubon Terrace in the lower Washington Heights area of New York City in United States.
The museum contains works by Diego Velázquez, Francisco Goya, El Greco, and Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida, among others. The rare books library maintains 15,000 books printed before 1700, including a first edition of ''Don Quixote.''
Attendance at the museum is typically sparse, as it is not located near many other major cultural institutions.
