Las Meninas is a 1656 old painting by Diego Velázquez, the leading artist of the Spanish Golden Age. The word “Menina” means “Maid of Honour”, i.e. a girl who serves in a royal court. There is a lot of detail in the painting, and more has been written about it than about almost any other Western painting because it is quite complicated.
