It has damage in the frame.

This work follows the model of the portrait of Maria of Austria, Queen of Hungary, painted by Velázquez in 1630 and currently part of the collection of the Prado Museum in Madrid.
The work is probably the work of one of the copyists of the Prado. In its rooms, traditionally a multitude of future artists have had the opportunity to learn, thanks to the copying of the works of the great masters. Despite being a very common practice during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, today the Prado Museum is the only museum in the capital that admits copyists in a reduced way so that they can not interrupt the transit of visitors.
