The Getty Adds Its First Velázquez

A newly discovered painting by Diego Velázquez has entered the Getty's collection in Los Angeles, the museum's first work by the Spanish master. The acquisition brings a painter long absent from the Getty's holdings into the fold at last, closing a gap that collectors and curators alike have watched for years. For a collection built painting by painting, this is the kind of arrival that reorders the walls.
