Majas on Balcony
by GOYA Y LUCIENTES, Francisco de, Oil on canvas, 194,8 x 125,7 cm
Supervised by the threatening figures of two heavily-cloaked ‘majos’, two ‘majas’ look down upon the passers-by. One even gives a hint of a smile, highly unusual for Goya’s women. Since 1995 the authenticity of this canvas has been in doubt.
