More about this artwork

We are pleased to feature the revered work "Portrait of Don Juan Antonio Cuervo" from 1819, painted by the esteemed Spanish artist Francisco de Goya. The painting captures Don Juan Antonio Cuervo, a notable figure of his time, presented in an official yet intimate manner.In this portrait, Cuervo is depicted seated, turning slightly towards the viewer with a gentle expression on his face. His attire is of rich detail, elaborately decorated with golden embroidery—a sign of his status and the formal nature of this representation. He wears a dark, ornate jacket and a red sash, symbols of his authority and position. His hands rest on what appears to be a plan or a map, hinting at his involvement in architectural or city planning pursuits.The subdued lighting of the portrait focuses on Cuervo's facial features and the intricate textures of his clothing, leaving the background in muted darkness. This technique enhances the figure’s prominence and draws attention to the fineness of his garments’ embroidery and the important documents before him.Goya, known for his penetrating psychological portrayal of his subjects, offers a glimpse into Cuervo's persona, suggesting a character marked by intelligence and thoughtfulness.

Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His paintings, drawings, and engravings reflected contemporary historical upheavals and influenced important 19th- and 20th-century painters. Goya is often referred to as the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns.
