Symbolist painter Julio Romero de Torres was the son of Rafael Barros, an artist and museum curator. Romero’s style fluctuated between Realism and Impressionism over his career, though for subjects nudes and semi-nudes were frequent. This portrait by the artist is melancholy in its hues, and the striking Spanish brunette seems to hold a secret.
