Meet the famous Majas, two paintings by Goya that caused quite a stir in 19th-century Spain.
The model's identity remains a mystery, but rumors point to the Duchess of Alba, Goya's alleged lover.
The paintings were commissioned by Manuel de Godoy, the powerful first minister of Spain, to decorate his office.
The Nude Maja was a bold move, featuring a completely naked woman, which was not common in Spanish art at the time.
The Clothed Maja is equally stunning, with its provocative posture and beautiful dress, making it a fan favorite.
