About the piece

Painted in 1856 by Eugenio Lucas Velázquez, this evocative oil painting depicts a stagecoach and its passengers weathering a violent storm. Velázquez, a prominent figure in Spanish Romanticism who was deeply influenced by Goya, employs expressive brushwork and high-contrast lighting to convey the movement of wind and rain across the landscape.
