About the piece
Painted in 1783 by Francisco Goya, this masterful portrait depicts the young María Teresa de Borbón y Vallabriga. Clad in a delicate lace mantilla and a shimmering blue bodice, she stands with a poise that belies her age, accompanied by a small, fluffy dog at her feet. The atmospheric backdrop of the Spanish mountains lends a sense of grandeur and airiness to this intimate child portrait.
