"I am Still Learning" (Spanish: "Aún aprendo") is an etching attributed to the Spanish Romantic painter and printmaker Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746–1828). While not as widely recognized as some of his other works, this image is often cited as an example of Goya's introspective and self-reflective later period. The etching is believed to have been created around the 1820s, during the latter part of Goya's life when he was living in voluntary exile in Bordeaux, France, after having witnessed the political turmoil and societal changes in Spain.

The phrase "Aún aprendo" suggests a humility and dedication to lifelong learning, which resonates with the spirit of the Enlightenment that influenced much of Goya's work. Although the etching itself is not as well-documented as his other series, such as "Los Caprichos" or "The Disasters of War," it is often interpreted as a personal statement from the artist, reflecting his ongoing quest for knowledge and artistic development even in his old age.

The image typically associated with "I am Still Learning" depicts an elderly man, who is presumed to be Goya himself, hunched over and using two walking sticks, struggling up a steep incline. This representation of the artist, burdened by age yet persevering in his efforts to ascend, serves as a powerful metaphor for the unending pursuit of wisdom and the challenges faced in the process.

As with many of Goya's works, "I am Still Learning" is characterized by its stark realism and emotional depth, capturing the human condition with a raw honesty that was ahead of its time. The etching is a testament to Goya's innovative spirit and his influence on the modern art movements that would follow.

Due to the limited information on this specific etching and the ambiguity surrounding its origin and authenticity, there is some debate among art historians regarding its provenance and the exact message Goya intended to convey. Nevertheless, "I am Still Learning" remains an evocative piece that encapsulates the enduring spirit of one of Spain's most celebrated and revolutionary artists.
