About the piece
Painted in 1795 by Francisco Goya, this full-length portrait depicts the Duchess of Alba in a delicate white muslin dress accented with a bold red sash and bows. The work showcases Goya's masterful ability to balance the textures of fine fabric with the commanding presence of his aristocratic sitter, accompanied by a small, beribboned dog in a serene landscape.
