Splendid image of the actress maría guerrero (1867-1928), portrayed in her childhood. She poses dressed in a blue and white suit, sitting on a wooden chair and resting her feet on a red velvet cushion with a lost look and a serious expression. The brushstroke, long and thick, builds the figure based on planes of color, evoking the art of rosales, and establishing a great contrast between the tight drawing of the face and the expressive freedom of the rest of the elements that are sketched in an exercise of pictorial freedom. Object Type: painting. Date: 1878. Dimensions: height: 89 cm (35 in); width: 61 cm (24 in). Medium: oil on canvas. Collection: Museo del Prado. María Guerrero niña
