Las Meninas, or The Family of Philip IV
Velázquez, Diego Rodríguez de Silva y

17th century spanish art barroc golden century Portraits

A portrait of the Infanta Margarita, daughter of Felipe IV (1605-1665), surrounded by her servants or ?family? in a hall of Madrid?s Alcázar Palace.

This, the most famous of Velázquez?s works, offers a complex composition built with admirable skill in the use of perspective, the depiction of light, and the representation of atmosphere.

There have been innumerable interpretations of this subject and later references to it. The most numerous emphasize a defense of the nobility of painting versus craft. Velázquez portrays himself, painting the painting itself, on the left of the canvas, thus affirming the supremacy of the art of painting. The Infanta Margarita (1651-1673), wears white and appears in the center of the composition, surrounded by her ladies in waiting, the ?meninas? María Agustina de Sarmiento and Isabel de Velasco, along with two court buffoons, María Bárbola and Nicolasito Pertusato, and a mastiff. Behind her, the duenna Marcela de Ulloa converses with the quartermaster, José Nieto, who is in the doorway.

The King and Queen, Felipe IV and María de Austria (1634-1696) are reflected in the mirror at the back of the room, leading to series of extraordinarily complex spatial relations.
