"An Elegant Lady Wearing a Mantilla" is a painting by Spanish artist Cecilio Plá y Gallardo, created in the late 19th or early 20th century. Plá y Gallardo, born in Valencia in 1860 and passing away in Madrid in 1934, was a prolific painter known for his genre scenes, landscapes, and portraits, often characterized by a delicate and refined use of color and light. This particular work exemplifies his skill in portraiture and his interest in capturing the elegance and grace of the female form.

The painting depicts a woman adorned with a mantilla, a traditional Spanish lace or silk veil worn over the head and shoulders, often over a high comb called a peineta. The subject's attire and the use of the mantilla suggest a connection to Spanish culture and possibly an engagement with themes of identity and tradition. Plá y Gallardo's attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns of the lace and the soft rendering of the fabric, which contrasts with the woman's delicate features and composed expression.

"An Elegant Lady Wearing a Mantilla" is a testament to Cecilio Plá y Gallardo's artistic legacy and his contribution to the portrayal of Spanish cultural motifs in fine art. The painting not only showcases his technical prowess but also offers a glimpse into the fashion and societal norms of the period in which he worked. While the exact date of creation and current location of the painting may not be well-documented, the work remains an important piece within Plá y Gallardo's oeuvre, reflecting the broader artistic movements of his time and the enduring allure of Spanish traditional dress.
