Charles IV of Spain and His Family

Charles IV of Spain and His Family is an oil  painting by the Spanish artist Francisco Goya, completed between 1800-1801. The work was modeled on Velázquez's Las Meninas when setting the royal subjects in a naturalistic, and plausible setting.

As in Las Meninas, the royal family in Goya's work are apparently paying a visit to the artist's studio, while the artist himself can be seen to the left looking outwards towards the viewer. In both the artists is shown working on a canvas, of which only the rear is visible. However, the atmospheric and warm perspective of the palace interior of Velázquez's work is replaced in the Goya by a sense of, in the words of Gassier, "imminent suffocation" as the royal family are presented by Goya on a "stage facing the public, while in the shadow of the wings the painter, with a grim smile, points and says: 'Look at them and judge for yourself!'"
