Portrait of Doña Antonia Zárate (1805)

The Portrait of Doña Antonia Zárate is a c.1805 portrait of the actress Antonia Zárate by the Spanish artist Francisco Goya. It was probably produced by Goya in his studio, where an 1812 inventory mentions there were eight yellow damask chairs and an associated divan. She wears a black silk dress in the Empire style, then fashionable in Spain, with her arms covered by fingerless white gloves, her hands holding a closed fan and a mantilla on her head and shoulders. The painting may also have been the source for the 1810-11 portrait of her by Goya or his studio.
