"The Nude Maja" is a famous painting by the Spanish artist Francisco Goya. It depicts a naked woman reclining on a bed, staring directly at the viewer. The painting is known for its controversial subject matter and its realistic portrayal of the female form. Goya created two versions of the painting: one with the woman's pubic hair visible and one with it covered. It remains a significant work in the history of art and is often seen as a symbol of sensuality and beauty.
