From LinkedCulture
At 76 years old, Francisco de Goya painted this portrait of Don Ramón Satué just before leaving Spain forever. Satué, a judge of Castile's highest tribunal, stands in a heavy black coat with his white collar open at the throat and hands tucked casually behind him. That relaxed pose was something Goya typically saved for his closest friends, making it remarkable here. Painted in 1823, this oil on canvas is one of the last works Goya made on Spanish soil.

From the Rijksmuseum record
Goya owes his fame to his portraits of the Spanish court and to his idiosyncratic prints. He had already turned 76 when he painted this powerful portrait. Satué was a judge in the highest tribunal of Castile. The casual pose and open collar have an informality that Goya usually reserved for portraits of his most intimate friends.
