The story of Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zúñiga (The Red Boy)

The portrait was commissioned by the boy's father, Vicente Joaquín Osorio de Moscoso y Guzmán, conde de Altamira, a director of the Banco de San Carlos, who hired Goya to paint several family portraits. It depicts Altamira's youngest son, Manuel, born in April 1784, who died at the age of eight in 1792. The art historian Claus Virch described it in 1967 as one of the most appealing and successful portraits of children ever painted, and also one of the most famous. The painting has been held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art since 1949.

Goya is often referred to as the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art.
