"Don Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuñiga" is an iconic portrait painted by the Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes around 1787-1788. The subject of the painting is the young son of the Count and Countess of Altamira, who were members of the Spanish nobility and prominent patrons of Goya's work. The portrait is renowned for its depiction of the young boy, who is often referred to as "the Red Boy" due to his striking red costume, a common attire for children of the Spanish aristocracy during that period.

The painting is notable for its rich symbolism and the way it captures the innocence of childhood juxtaposed with subtle hints of mortality and the transience of life. Don Manuel is portrayed standing, dressed in a lavish suit, and holding a string that is attached to a cage with finches, while three cats watch intently, creating a sense of tension and potential danger. A magpie, symbolizing curiosity and intelligence, is also present, holding the calling card of Goya in its beak, which serves as a clever signature for the artist.

Goya's masterful use of color and light, along with his ability to convey psychological depth, is evident in this work. The painting is a fine example of the Rococo style transitioning into Romanticism, showcasing Goya's evolving artistic approach during the late 18th century. "Don Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuñiga" is not only a portrait of a young noble but also a reflection of the social and cultural context of the time.

The painting is part of the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it has been held since 1949, after being bequeathed by Jules Bache. It remains one of Goya's most celebrated and studied works, admired for its technical brilliance and its rich layers of meaning.
