About the piece

Painted around 1805, this celebrated portrait by Francisco Goya depicts Doña Isabel de Porcel in the traditional 'maja' attire of Spain. The work is renowned for Goya's technical brilliance, particularly in the delicate rendering of the black lace mantilla and the luminous quality of the subject's skin against the dark, atmospheric background.
