"Anciana" (English: "Old Woman") is a notable painting by Juan Manuel Blanes, a prominent Uruguayan painter known for his historical and portrait works. Blanes, often referred to as the "Painter of the Uruguayan Nation," played a crucial role in the development of art in Uruguay during the 19th century. While he is best known for his depictions of significant events in the history of Uruguay and Latin America, as well as portraits of important figures, "Anciana" represents a departure into genre painting, where the focus is on everyday life and ordinary people.

The painting "Anciana" captures the image of an elderly woman, rendered with a level of empathy and realism that speaks to Blanes' skill in portraying human emotion and character. The work is characterized by its detailed brushwork and the use of light and shadow to convey the texture of the woman's skin and the fabrics she wears. The subject's expression and posture evoke a sense of lived experience and resilience, reflecting the artist's ability to connect with the viewer on a personal level.

Although the exact date of creation for "Anciana" is not well-documented, it is believed to have been painted during Blanes' mature period, when he had fully developed his artistic style and gained recognition in South American art circles. The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for providing insight into the social conditions and cultural context of Uruguay in the late 19th century.

"Anciana" is held in high esteem among Blanes' body of work and is often cited as an example of his capacity to transcend historical and portrait painting, demonstrating his versatility and sensitivity as an artist. The painting is part of Uruguay's national heritage and can be seen as a testament to Blanes' enduring legacy in the canon of Latin American art.
