| Don Cristóbal Suárez de Ribera | 1620 | 207 × 148 | Museum of Fine Arts of Seville | Signed and dated in a fold of clothing difficult to read.[2] This would be a posthumous portrait, as the sitter died in 1618, although Mayer thought that monogram and date could be apocryphal.[3] | 17/19 |
| La venerable madre Jerónima de la Fuente | 1620 | 162 × 107 | Museo del Prado, Madrid | Signed and dated "Diego Velazquez f. 1620". The phylactery around the cross with its inscription, now illegible, was erased in 1944, after entering at the Museum, for having believed apocryphal.[4] | 18/20 |

| Retrato de hombre | 1623–1624 | 55.5 × 38 | Museo del Prado, Madrid | Allende-Salazar (1925), Mayer (1936) and Camón Aznar estimate that this could be a self-portrait. López-Rey and Brown think that the subject could be the artist's brother Juan, also a painter.[6] | 24/27 |
| Felipe IV | 1623–1624 | 61.6 × 48.2 | Meadows Museum, Dallas | Brown believes that this may be a portrait of the king,[7] a hypothesis rejected by López-Rey.[8] | 25/28 |

| Cabeza de venado | 1626–1628 | 58 × 44.5 | Museo del Prado, Madrid | Dating is controversial. Most critics suggest 1635.[10] López-Rey gives 1626, based on 1637 information from a picture of a deer antler painted by Velázquez bearing the inscription "Le mató el Rey nuestro Sr. Phe. quarto el year 1626".[11] A technical study by Carmen Garrido placed the date between 1626 and 1628.[12] | 31/33 |

| Demócrito/El geógrafo | 1628–1629 | 101 × 81 | Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen | Head and hand repainted around 1640. Radiography shows the left hand formerly contained a drink, as it appears in two copies preserved.[14] | 37/40 |

| María Teresa, infanta de España | 1651–1652 | 34.3 × 40 | Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City | The work has been cut.[27] Critics have unanimously considered it by Velázquez. Brown (1986) believes that it could be a study used as a model for later portraits.[28] | 110/118 |

| Portrait of Mariana of Austria | 1652–1653 | 234 × 131.5 | Museo del Prado, Madrid | Painted on a portrait of the king, perhaps only sketched. López-Rey said, confirmed in the technical study conducted at the Museo del Prado, that the top of the curtain was painted by another hand on a piece of fabric added to the original composition, in order to match the canvas with Philip IV with a lion, the Museo del Prado, the work of the workshop.[29] [30] | 113/121 |

| Las Hilanderas or The Fable of Arachne | c. 1657 | 167 × 252 | Museo del Prado, Madrid | The addition of a new section to the upper portion of the canvas was probably the result of repair after the fire at the Alcázar in 1734. | 117/107 |
| La reina Mariana de Austria | 1655–1656 | 46.5 × 43 | Meadows Museum, Dallas | Probably an unfinished study.[31] | 118/125 |
