Las Gigantillas by Francisco de Goya
The boys in this painting are playing, riding on one another’s shoulders. What do you think they are doing? Perhaps they are pretending to be a giant, or one boy is the horse and the other is his rider. These boys are playing outside. Can you see the big mountain in the background?
Goya was one of the most important Spanish artists of all time. He worked for the royal family for most of his life, for three different Spanish kings.
Sir James and Sir Alexander Macdonald by William Mosman
Who do you think the boys in this painting are? The older boy, James, who stands on the right, is wearing a kilt. Do you know why the boy is wearing this clothing, similar to a skirt? In Scotland, his home country, it is still normal for boys to wear kilts as part of their traditional clothing. Do you know the sport that the boy on the left, Alexander, is playing? This sport is called golf and it was invented in Scotland.
