Ni asi la distingue (Even Thus He Cannot Make Her Out) is a 1799 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows three women in a dimly lit room. One woman stands holding a child, her cloak draped over her shoulders. Another woman leans close, peering at something in her hand. A third woman sits nearby, holding a fan and looking down. The background is dark and blurry, with a dog resting on the floor. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show movement and emotion. The lighting is soft, making the scene feel intimate and mysterious. Look up etching, drypoint, aquatint to see how these techniques create this style.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
