"Infanta Margarita (detail) c. 1654" is a renowned oil painting by the Spanish artist Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez, one of the leading figures of the Spanish Golden Age of Baroque art. This particular work is a detail from one of Velázquez's most famous paintings, "Las Meninas," which was completed in 1656 and is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain. The detail focuses on the figure of Infanta Margarita Teresa, the daughter of King Philip IV of Spain and his second wife, Mariana of Austria.

In "Las Meninas," Infanta Margarita is depicted at the center of the composition, surrounded by her entourage of maids of honor, a chaperone, a bodyguard, two dwarfs, and a dog. The detail captures the Infanta at approximately five years of age, dressed in an elaborate and sumptuous costume that reflects her royal status. Her fair hair is styled with a hairband, and her gaze, directed outward, engages the viewer with an innocent yet commanding presence.

Velázquez's masterful use of light and shadow, along with his sophisticated handling of texture and fabric, is evident in this detail. The painting is celebrated for its complex and enigmatic composition, its exploration of illusion and reality, and its commentary on the act of painting itself. The Infanta Margarita is portrayed with a sense of immediacy and intimacy that is characteristic of Velázquez's portraits, which often convey the personalities and inner lives of his subjects.

As a detail of "Las Meninas," this work has been extensively analyzed and admired for its artistic significance and is considered a highlight of Velázquez's portraiture. The painting is not only a representation of the Spanish royal family but also a reflection of the court life and the role of the artist within it. The Infanta Margarita would later become Holy Roman Empress by marriage to Leopold I, but in this painting, she is immortalized as a child, embodying the innocence and formality of the Spanish Habsburg court.
