“The Black Duchess, Goya Pose” in yellow and bordeaux is Neoclassical Pop Art's theatrical print after the Spanish painter Francisco Goya's “The Black Duchess”, painted c. 1797 and kept at the Hispanic Society of America, New York.
The Romanticism style painting portrays María Cayetana de Silva, 13th Duchess of Alba, painted during the eight months Goya was a guest in her estate in Spain from 1796 to 1797.
In the original painting, the 35 Years Old Duchess is wearing a black dress of a Maja, mourning the death of her husband a year earlier.
Although Goya was fifty, deaf, married, and still not fully recovered from an illness, some speculate they may have had a romance because her right index finger points the ground where the words solo Goya (only Goya) written on the sand, and her rings inscribed Alba and Goya The painting had great personal importance to Goya, who kept it in his studio long after her death.
The Neoclassical Version comes in colorful and playful colors of hope and love.
