Against Heritage
The Prado Museum's greatest enigma to date is on display in Room 12. Inside the most valuable, most famous and most contemplated painting in the collection. This secret is none other than the hidden meaning of Las Meninas by Velázquez. The one that the Sevillian genius enclosed beneath the painting, hoping that it would be discovered by its original addressee, King Philip IV.
The discovery of a possible error in the historical sources of the work has triggered five years of research by the author, the fruit of which is an unpublished reading of the painting. The essay offers the reader a completely different view of the painting. It allows us to understand the profound meaning of each of its elements, its underlying message, the associated moral teaching and its true pictorial genre.
As new viewers of the painting, we will be moved and delighted by other meninas that for more than three hundred years have been paradoxically hidden from public view.
