"La Gallina Ciega" (The Blind Man's Bluff) is a renowned painting by the Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, created around 1788-1789 as part of a series of cartoons for tapestries intended for the dining room of the Prince and Princess of Asturias in the El Pardo Palace. This work is one of Goya's lighter, more playful pieces, reflecting the Rococo style that was fashionable at the time, and it stands in contrast to his later, darker works that delve into themes of war and human suffering.

The painting depicts a bucolic scene of leisure in which a group of elegantly dressed young people are playing the traditional game of blind man's bluff in a lush garden. One of the figures, blindfolded, is trying to catch the others as they dance and frolic around him. The composition captures the carefree spirit and the flirtatious interactions of the aristocracy enjoying their pastime. The use of soft, vibrant colors and the fluidity of the figures' movements convey a sense of joy and light-heartedness.

"La Gallina Ciega" is a prime example of Goya's early work, showcasing his ability to portray the frivolity and exuberance of the upper classes while also hinting at the underlying social commentary that would become more pronounced in his later career. The painting is a testament to Goya's mastery of tapestry design, a genre that required the harmonious blending of figures and landscape to complement the architectural space for which they were intended.

Today, "La Gallina Ciega" is held in the collection of the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, and remains an important work in the study of Goya's artistic evolution, as well as a charming glimpse into the leisure activities of 18th-century Spanish society.
