Las Meninas (1656) by Diego Velasquez
(lemm.ee)
What's really impressive about this is that the real focus of the painting is off-painting.
You can see them in the reflection of the mirror. The couple is sitting for a portrait, and the viewer is placed exactly where they are.
The young girl is a close second for being the subject but her presence mostly directs the viewer to the mirror and therefore the real subject.
318 cm × 276 cm, I bet that would be impressive in person. And a lot to be explored in the frame.
The massive canvas is shown in the painting itself, on the left side
Everybody loses it on the semiotic!
Wander the gallery. Look at the art. Be polite. If you feel able please post some great art :)
