From Industrial Art to the Object in Context: A Critical History of the National Museum of Decorative Arts

Archival holdings preserve clues for recovering what a display case alone does not always reveal. The Ministry of Culture describes the Rolaco Mac, S.A., Elizalde y Castro S.A., and Stilus S.A. holdings as documentation produced and received by three companies created and managed successively by a group of partners, with continuity in production and employment of the same designers and workers. They include financial and personnel documents, watercolours of furniture, photographic positives and negatives, and product design plans.
