The Chula series or Chula studies is a succession of paintings created by Filipino painter and hero Juan Luna about the so-called chulas or working class women of Madrid Spain. Luna is well known for illustrating “striking and commercially lucrative” depictions of women of the streets of Madrid. Exemplars of these are Luna’s Una Chula I (A Chula No. 1) and Una Chula II (A Chula No. 2) paintings.
