Painting Description
"Los Caprichos 4" is one of the 80 etchings that comprise the series "Los Caprichos," created by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes between 1797 and 1798. The series, published in 1799, is a critical and satirical exploration of the societal, political, and religious issues of late 18th-century Spain. Goya, through his masterful use of etching and aquatint, delves into the follies and absurdities of human behavior, often employing grotesque and fantastical imagery to underscore his critiques.
The fourth plate in the series, titled "El de la rollona" (The One with the Roll), depicts a scene that is both enigmatic and rich in symbolism. In this etching, Goya portrays a grotesque figure, possibly a nurse or a wet nurse, holding a child. The figure's exaggerated features and the unsettling atmosphere of the scene contribute to the overall sense of unease and ambiguity that characterizes much of Goya's work in "Los Caprichos." The title and the imagery suggest a critique of the care and upbringing of children, possibly alluding to the neglect or the corrupting influence of those entrusted with their welfare.
Goya's "Los Caprichos" series, including plate 4, is notable for its innovative use of the etching medium and its bold departure from traditional artistic conventions. The series reflects Goya's deep disillusionment with the social and political climate of his time, as well as his keen insight into the darker aspects of human nature. "El de la rollona" exemplifies Goya's ability to blend realism with fantasy, creating works that are both visually compelling and intellectually provocative. Through this series, Goya not only cemented his reputation as a master printmaker but also as a fearless social commentator, whose works continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.
