1800 Maria Teresa de Borbón, 15th Countess of Chinchon by Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (Museo Nacional del Prado - Madrid Spain)

I wonder what Goya would have done with flash photography - the lighting helps make the portrait.

Her Wikipedia article is here.

Countess Chinchon's dress has a substantial under-dress covered by an opaque over-dress in this 1800 Goya portrait. The under-dress shows at the hem and also as triangular turn-ups on her sleeves. The larger of her rings has a cameo portrait.
