"Caprichos - Plate 68: Lovely Teacher" is a work by Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, a renowned Spanish painter and printmaker. This piece is part of Goya's famous series "Los Caprichos," which consists of 80 prints created between 1797 and 1798. The series is a satirical critique of Spanish society of the time, particularly focusing on the follies and vices seen in various aspects of life including the aristocracy, the clergy, and common folk behaviors.

Plate 68, titled "Linda maestra!" which translates to "Lovely Teacher!" in English, depicts a scene that is rich in allegory and symbolism, common traits in Goya's Caprichos. The artwork features an old woman, ostensibly teaching two young women who are sitting beside her. The portrayal is likely satirical, suggesting that the old woman, despite her age and experience, might be imparting knowledge that is morally dubious or superficial, reflecting Goya's critical view of the educational and moral instruction of the time.

The etching technique used by Goya allows for intricate details and expressive textures, which enhance the thematic and emotional depth of the work. "Lovely Teacher" is emblematic of Goya's style during his middle period, characterized by a dark, dramatic tone and a sharp critique of societal norms. This piece, like others in the series, employs a blend of realism and fantasy, inviting viewers to reflect on the contradictions and complexities of human nature and social constructs.
