Cecilio Plá: The couple (1895)


(Museo del Prado, Madrid, Spain)

 A painting by the Spanish artist Cecilio Plá (1860-1934). A man, a woman and a young girl are sitting on a couch. The woman is crying while the man is looking self-absorbed. It is unknown what has happened: a family tragedy, the man has lost his job, a fight between lovers?. The young girl is either trying to comfort or conciliate. Painting from 1895
