Las Meninas es un cuadro cargado de enigmas. En él concurren un complejo de referencias, contenidos literarios, usos del ritual de la época que hacen del cuadro un paradigma del imaginario del pintor. Concebida como obra maestra, para el entorno restringido del rey, Velázquez aparece pintando un cuadro oculto sobre el que se han formulado las más diversas hipótesis aunque es una referencia a obras maestras de la Antigüedad concretamente a la obra maestra de Apeles descrita por los escritores antiguos.
