Estatua sedente de Velázquez (bronce, 1899): En un fugaz viaje a Madrid en 1865, con la intención de contemplar las obras de Goya en el Museo del Prado, Édouard Manet, el precursor del impresionismo, se quedó aturdido ante Velázquez, del que escribió que no sólo es el pintor de los pintores, sino que es el más grande que jamás ha existido.

!["Although the goddess of civil warfare was still in doubt, and soft Otho had perhaps still a chance of winning, he renounced fighting that would have cost much blood and with sure hand pierced right through his breast.
