In Female Portrait (Portrait of Lola Jimenez), while depicting an artistic, emotional, and spiritually gifted nature, Goya is able to see and show individuality in all its wealth and complexity. The shifting nature and emotionality of the Spanish woman’s character is expressed by the artist primarily through the painting’s color scheme – the red burst of the model’s clothing against the dark background. The suppressed temperament with the external restraint, which is so finely expressed by the artist, transforms the portrait into a generalized image of a Spanish woman.
