About the piece

Painted in 1826 during Goya's final years in Bordeaux, this portrait of Jacques Galos captures the sitter with the artist's characteristic psychological depth. The work utilizes a moody, limited palette and loose, expressive brushwork, exemplifying the modern style Goya developed late in his career.
