With this proposal we want to approach the study of the will and post mortem inventory of Doña María de Córdoba y Aragón, lady- in waiting to Queen Anne of Austria. The analysis of the document allows us, not only to introduce ourselves into the materiality of court life in the Spain of Philip II, but also to understand how the objects allow us to capture the individuality of this servant as well as her court experience and the fulfillment of the associated purposes to her aulic position.
