A hidden portrait by Goya has been discovered under one of the artist\u2019s paintings at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. It lies beneath the Portrait of Ram\u00f3n Satu\u00e9, 1823, which depicts a judge. The original image was revealed using scanning macro x-ray fluorescence spectrometry, a new technique developed by the universities of Antwerp and Delft.<\/p>\n

Who did Goya originally depict? The sitter wears a uniform, embellished with a medal, which has been identified as that of the highest level of the Royal Order, a chivalric order founded by Joseph Bonaparte, king of Spain. This means that the hidden portrait must date from 1809 to 1813. Only 15 generals, plus Joseph, were entitled to wear the uniform and medal, although so far it has proved impossible to pin down exactly which of them is depicted.<\/p>\n
