"Portrait of Mrs. Clotilde de Cándamo and Her Son Carlos" is a painting by Raimundo de Madrazo, a prominent Spanish portrait painter, created in 1874. The artwork depicts Mrs. Cándamo, dressed in a lavish blue gown and adorned with jewelry, seated with her young son Carlos who gazes outward. The composition highlights the elegance of the figures and their attire, typical of 19th-century portraiture. The soft brushstrokes and warm palette create a sense of intimacy and evoke the aristocratic setting. Madrazo's mastery in capturing likeness and conveying social status makes this portrait a fine example of his work.
