Zusammenfassung
The Family of Charles IV could be classified, according to Palomino, as a "historiado" portrait [which means that for its elaboration it is necessary to keep the same adjustment and restraint as in a story] of metaphorical matter, which would be trying to show the Royal Family as an enlightened monarchy that behaves with knowledge and following the commands of the reason, in accordance to the ideas developed by the Spanish regal political literature. If so, we would be looking at a mirror of ideal monarchy created by Goya's invention, that, unfortunately, the stubborn reality finally denied.
