Portrait of Francisca Vicenta Chollet y Caballero is a 1806 oil by Francisco Goya, held at Norton Simon Museum.
The painting depicts a woman in a white dress, adorned with a crown of flowers and a pearl necklace. She sits on a red couch, holding a small dog in her lap. The background is dark, with the woman's face and dress illuminated by a soft light. The woman's expression is serene, and her dress is intricately detailed with small flowers and leaves. The dog in her lap is also well-detailed, with a red collar and a black nose. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of elegance and refinement. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Francisco Goya, who was known for his portraits of Spanish nobility.
