"Qual la descanonan," Plate 21 from the series "Los Caprichos" by Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, is a significant work within the oeuvre of the Spanish artist. Created in 1799, "Los Caprichos" is a collection of 80 aquatint prints that serve as a satirical critique of the societal and political issues of Goya's time. The series delves into themes such as superstition, ignorance, and the follies of human behavior, often employing grotesque and fantastical imagery to convey its messages.

"Qual la descanonan" depicts a scene that is both enigmatic and evocative, characteristic of Goya's ability to blend realism with surreal elements. The title, which can be loosely translated to "Which of them is more of a harlot?" or "Which one is the more despicable?" suggests a moral inquiry or judgment. The image shows a group of women, possibly prostitutes, in a setting that hints at moral decay and societal corruption. The figures are rendered with a stark contrast between light and shadow, emphasizing their expressions and the underlying tension of the scene.

Goya's use of aquatint, a printmaking technique that allows for the creation of tonal effects, adds a layer of depth and texture to the work. This technique, combined with his masterful draftsmanship, enables Goya to create a haunting atmosphere that draws the viewer into the moral complexities of the scene.

"Qual la descanonan" is emblematic of Goya's critical eye and his ability to convey powerful social commentary through art. The print, like many in the "Los Caprichos" series, reflects Goya's disillusionment with the society of his time and his desire to expose the vices and absurdities he observed. Today, "Los Caprichos" remains a pivotal work in the history of art, showcasing Goya's innovative approach and his enduring relevance as a commentator on human nature and societal flaws.
