Dona Maria

Dona Maria, the girl in this painting is actually only two years old. It is difficult to even tell since she is dressed up like an adult. Everything from her dress to her facial expressions scream maturity. At first glance  I thought she was just a midget. She also looks extremely unhappy in the painting, which could be because she would rather be playing with toys than all dolled up.
