Titled "Pause Goya Pose," the Neoclassical Pop Art artwork inspired by the Spanish painter Francisco Goya painting, “The Black Duchess”, created c1797, currently located 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.

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.
