Archer M. Huntington (1870-1955), the museum-builder and founderoftheHispanicSocietyofAmericainNewYork,hadalesser known complementary dimension as a cultural bridges-builder between Spain and the United States in moments of conflict and diplomatic tension. With an approach based on his social relations rather than on his artistic collections, this article offers an alternative reading in which Huntington emerges as a friendly figure in bilateral relations who did not passively accept the status quo and who, from the standpoint of culture, contributed to modifying the image of Spain that prevailed in the United States.
