EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes, titled "God forgive her: and it was her mother" is a thought-provoking piece from his series Los caprichos. Published in 1799, this artwork serves as a powerful social criticism that delves into the complexities of poverty and female identity. The image portrays an old woman, draped in a veil and holding a fan, begging for alms. The satirical nature of the artwork becomes apparent when we realize that the rich lady standing beside her is none other than her own daughter. Goya's masterful engraving skillfully captures the stark contrast between wealth and destitution. Through this piece, Goya highlights the harsh realities faced by those living in poverty while shedding light on societal hypocrisy. He challenges our perceptions of morality and questions how one can abandon their own flesh and blood to such dire circumstances. As one of Spain's most renowned artists, Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes used his talent to expose societal injustices during his time. This particular etching showcases his ability to convey profound messages through visual storytelling. "God forgive her: and it was her mother" remains relevant even today as it reminds us to reflect on our actions towards others less fortunate than ourselves. It serves as a reminder that compassion should prevail over materialistic pursuits, urging us all to strive for empathy in an ever-changing world.
