Filippo IV in età avanzata — Storia e analisi

Un uomo dalla pelle chiara e dai lunghi capelli castano chiaro guarda fisso dall'oscurità, il suo volto incorniciato da un rigido colletto bianco e i suoi abiti neri resi con pennellate sciolte e sicure. Questo è un ritratto di Filippo IV di Spagna, dipinto da Diego Velázquez intorno al 1653. Il soggetto, Filippo IV, era re di Spagna e figlio di Filippo III di Spagna.

Quest'opera appartiene alla tradizione della pittura barocca spagnola, con il suo accento sui contrasti drammatici e sulla presenza psicologica.
