Documents preserved in the archives of the Prado Museum and the Madrid Royal Palace, an announcement in the Diario de Madrid and the testimony of a foreign resident, reveal that the first sculptural works exhibited in the then still denominated Royal Painting Museum for a period of fifteen days in January 1827, were two full-length seated portrait statues executed in Rome: Carlos IV (1817) by Ramón Barba and María Luisa de Parma (1816) by José Alvarez Cubero. This must have been a major cultural and political event that until now had not been noted in the literature on the history of the museum.
