EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful etching created by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco Goya in 1799. This artwork, which belongs to his series called Los Caprichos, reflects the social and political climate of Spain during that time. Goya's print depicts a scene filled with fear, poverty, and despair. In the foreground stands a skeletal figure representing death, while a pleading woman watches anxiously beside a gravestone. The image captures the struggle of the poor and marginalized in Spanish society who are trapped in their dire circumstances. The use of black and white enhances the somber tone of this satirical piece. Goya employs allegorical figures to convey his strong political message against ignorance and intellectual oppression prevalent at that period. Through his artistry, he expresses his liberal views on politics and criticizes those who perpetuate social repression. This print serves as an important historical document showcasing Goya's artistic talent as well as reflecting the turbulent times faced by Spain in the late 18th century. It highlights how artists can use their creativity to shed light on societal issues and challenge prevailing norms. "And still they don't go!" remains relevant even today as it reminds us of our responsibility to address poverty, inequality, and injustice within our own societies. It serves as a reminder that art has always been a powerful tool for social commentary throughout history.
