It is particularly interesting because of where it was painted and the audience for which is was painted. Sala did the work in Paris and sent it to Madrid for the Exposición Nacional–Spain's equivalent of the Paris Salon–of 1889. Compared to other works submitted to the contest, the work was particularly French in style; but, the subject could not be more Spanish. The work is currently on display in the Prado for the first time in nearly 100 years.Micahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09545863765337166355noreply@blogger.com
