It is Diego Velazquez’s intent that the mirror image shows reflection from more than one possible angle. The King and Queen could be directly in front of the mirror. But, they could also be staring at the mirror reflection of their own portrait on the canvas. There are deeper philosophical nuances to this painting titled, “Maids of honor”.

Another interpretation: The entire portrait is a mirror. The girl is the viewer looking at the mirror reflecting what is going on behind her, incl. the painter. Behind her there is a mirror reflecting the king & queen. But the king and queen is NOT seen in the mirror in front of her. The king and queen is either in front of the girl AND beyond the large mirror(beyond the reality of the portrait). OR they are idealised figments of the girl's reality which she asks the painter to include in the final portrait. Thus the entire painting is a reflection of the girl's ideal which does not reflect the famine at the time.

because of its value. the surrounding paintings that actually do hang on the wall have a much darker shade, whereas the mirror that reflects the royal parents is much much lighter. this tells us that it has to reflect light, so it probably is a mirror. a window at that wall wouldn't reflect as much light, as it's only made ot of glass and couldn't reflect such a clear image of the parents in that room.

It was unlikely a royal portrait of the King and Queen, given its relative size, and position on the wall, at that height. Just visit government offices to see where royal portraits are hung. There are strict guidelines on the use of royal arms, names and images in public. It is Diego Velazquez’s intent that the mirror image shows reflection from more than one possible angle. The King and Queen could be directly in front of the mirror. But, they could also be staring at the mirror reflection of their own portrait on the canvas.

Mariana was a Hapsburg and was bethrothed to one of Felipe's sons. While she was traveling to Spain the son died. So she gets to Spain and Felipe tells her "well, my wife just died and I need a wife." So they marry. Felipe was her uncle so Mariana became her own aunt by marriage. Made things confusing at Christmas, for sure.

What I think about the painting is that it is made as if the King and Queen were viewing it. The audience is supposed to imagine themselves as the royal couple, only then will the painting be complete. Everybody is staring at you because you are the King/Queen . The painter is drawing your portrait (which is reflected in the mirror) and has paused to study your features. It's such an intriguing painting because it blurs the boundary between reality and imagination. Its like time travelling which makes you live with the people who died hundreds of years ago.

I’ve always thought the composition of this piece is weird for how delicately put together it is. Say this is meant to be the king and queen having a portrait made, why is their daughter stood awkwardly by the painter in the middle of this empty room with her hand maids trying to serve her, why are the two dwarves (who I believe were jesters) also in the picture disturbing a dog in front of the king whilst a delicate and important painting is being made nearby?? And why is everyone bunched together by the window of this perceivably large room? The setting seems very unrealistic. I always got the impression that it was more like the backstage of a theatre production, where the girl is the star of the show rather than a portrait of a royal court.

An amazing piece of trivia is the fact that Velazques wanted to become a Knight, but he couldn't because of his profession (and because it was suspected that one of his grandparents was Jewish). He tried to convince the king Phillip the iv with this painting. The king in return was able to convince the church to allow him to name Diego a Knight, and thus 3 years after this painting was finished, velazques painted the "Cruz de Santiago", which is the chapter of Knights that he was named into. (it is rumored that the King himself painted that cross). Velazques knew very well the meaning of it and he wouldn't have dated to paint it without first obtaining it.

The painting itself is a reflection painted from a large mirror, or smaller ones arranged looking at themselves. I didn't know much about this masterpiece then, and I was only interested in Velazquez's technique by analyzing as much of his paintings I could in high definition, and of course to get a glimpse of the man behind the GENIUS. However, when I saw "Las Meninas" for the very first time, my eyes went directly to the face of the MASTER (painter), and he intentionally implies with his slightly distorted (more like slanted I would say) face in the whole composition that it is no doubt a face painted from a reflection, as it is the large canvas in the painting and the subjects as well. He paints the same painting in the painting that is painted and fixed on the wall of the Museo del Prado nowadays. Of course the paintings on the walls are done not as reflections, and the mirror in which the King and Queen appear, and so on. He deliberately painted some elements mirrored and some not, as I would do myself in my own illustrations. The paintings on the wall he could have painted by seeing them directly, yet, I think for the sake of the composition's unity, and for inspiration for the artist to capture his subjects precisely, many have posed for days or weeks (himself included) when he had done the foreground. The many deliberately planned elements combined in one composition of course baffles many people, and this was exactly his intention, yet it does not those who know "that one stroke of brush is never one stroke" and those that know (better than I) the rules of subjective and psychological creativity.

Oh what a critical evaluation and analysis in context without passing any judgments with appropriate frame of reference and all these done with such brevity and beauty that even novices will start at least looking at paintings, if not appreciate or understand it, from a better perspective and perception. Actually this is how in depth analysis of literary texts, art, music and dance are also done. Two striking features of criticism One to confine to the inherent merits of the medium-music, dance or painting, language, subject- one may differ on taste, sensitive reactions, biased opinions[ either negative or positive] aesthetic appreciation of the work. Two evaluate in contextual perspective and try one's level best to get under the skin of or inside the skull of or into the arteries of the creator or producer of the work of art or music. Then one can feel the pulse of what is or what was there in the creator’s mind and heart. Then, the critic may proceed to further scrutinize it from other angles which the critic feels like, techniques, grammar, in comparison to other such artists or products etc.

Diego also replicated the two paintings on the back wall which could have been mentioned! Peter Paul Ruebens "Ovid's Metamorphosis": Pallas and Arachne on the left and Apollo as victor over Pan on the right!
