A young boy with reddish-brown hair and rosy cheeks gazes directly at the viewer in this full-length portrait. He is dressed in a richly embroidered green velvet jacket with gold trim, shiny white trousers, and a delicate lace collar. In his left hand, he holds a dark hat adorned with a red feather, while his right hand lightly touches the bridle of a rocking horse. To his left, a drum and other musical instruments are visible, hinting at the world of childhood and play. Painted by Goya around 1810, this oil on canvas captures the solemnity of its young subject. This piece would complement a traditionally decorated living room or a child's study.
