Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuñiga (1784–1792)

1787–88
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 641
O protagonista deste famoso retrato é o filho do conde e da condessa de Altamira. Vestido com um belo traje vermelho, a criança é mostrada enquanto brincava com uma ave de estimação (segurando no bico um cartão do pintor), uma gaiola cheia de tentilhões e três gatos com olhos bem abertos. Na arte cristã, as aves muitas vezes simbolizavam a alma, enquanto que na arte barroca, os pássaros em gaiolas são um símbolo de inocência. Goya provavelmente deve ter feito este retrato como a representação dos limites frágeis que separam o mundo da criança das forças do mal, ou como um comentário sobre a natureza efêmera da inocência e juventude. Talvez a pintura tenha sido feita após a morte da criança, em 1792.
