Manuela Goicoechea y Galarza is a 1805 unspecified by Francisco Goya, held at Museo del Prado.
The painting depicts a woman with dark hair, wearing a white dress and a white headpiece. She is facing to the right, with her body turned slightly towards the viewer. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the subject's features. The woman's facial expression is neutral, and her eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. Her hair is styled in a neat bun, and she is wearing a white shawl or cloak over her shoulders. The overall effect of the painting is one of simplicity and elegance. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting, drawing the viewer's eye to the subject's face and hands.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
