By Appreciation do you mean, its value in art history or do you mean its quality as a painting? Because by its wealth of symbolism and place in history I am sure this painting is pretty valuable however I am not much of a fan of this period of art history. Or Velazquezs style. Though he does have a certain realism that I like though I prefer the Dutch painters of this period or the Italians. I feel it is too cluttered and there for showing off the artist rather then the girl.
