Harris 36-115 (= Delteil 38-117). || Los Caprichos, a series of 80 prints by Francisco Goya, created between 1797 and 1798, serve as a scathing critique of Spanish society during the Enlightenment era. Through aquatint and etching, Goya exposes the follies and superstitions prevalent in society, targeting the ruling class, religious institutions, and societal norms. Each print is accompanied by Goya's cryptic explanations (through a title written below the images), shedding light on his intentions. The subjects that Goya chose for these prints are "from the multitude of follies and blunders common in every civil society, as well as from the vulgar prejudices and lies authorized by custom, ignorance or interest, those that he has thought most suitable matter for ridicule ". Despite its withdrawal from public sale shortly after release, Los Caprichos remains a significant precursor to modernist movements, offering a raw depiction of contemporary society. Goya's work continues to influence not only visual arts but also literature, philosophy, and social commentary, demonstrating its enduring relevance across diverse fields.Order number: 262128Many more antique maps and prints on our site antiquariat-voelkel.
