It is now in the [[Museo del Prado]].<br /> <br /> It was painted during his three-month stay in [[Naples]] on his return to Spain from Naples. It was made prior to its subject&#039;s marriage to [[Ferdinand III of Austria]] to be taken to Spain as a reminder of her in her absence for her brother [[Philip IV of Spain]] (since the time of [[Charles I of Spain]] it had been customary for Spanish kings and their relatives to exchange kinship portraits to show their character to others, to demonstrate their appearance in marriage negotiations or simply to remind each other of their appearance). As in his previous portraits, Velázquez paints his subject against a dark background to make the figure stand out, whilst the green suit, grey [[ruff (clothing)|ruff]] and hair are all realised in minute detail.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[List of works by Diego Velázquez]]<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> *[http://libmma.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/compoundobject/collection/p15324coll10/id/63259/rec/2 &#039;&#039;Velázquez &#039;&#039;], exhibition catalog from The Metropolitan Museum of Art (fully available online as PDF), which contains material on this portrait (see index)<br /> <br /> {{Diego Velázquez}}<br /> {{Museo del Prado}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Portraits by Diego Velázquez in the Museo del Prado|Maria Anna]]<br /> [[Category:Portraits of women|Maria Anna]]<br /> [[Category:1630 paintings]]<br /> [[Category:17th-century portraits|Maria Anna]]<br /> [[Category:1630s in Spain]]<br /> [[Category:Portraits by Diego Velázquez|Maria Anna]]</div>
