EDITORS COMMENTS
El Cacharrero, (The Crockery), 1778-1778, (c1934) by Francisco Goya captures a vibrant snapshot of city life in the 18th century. This complex scene showcases the bustling streets as a Valencian crockery seller displays his wares on the sidewalk. Meanwhile, a luxurious carriage passes by, carrying an elegant lady and two gentlemen. The painting was originally commissioned as a tapestry for the bedroom decor of the princes of Asturias at the Palace of El Pardo near Madrid. Goya's masterful use of oil on canvas brings out vivid colors and contrasts that depict both wealth and poverty in society. In this image, we see people from different walks of life - men and women engaged in various occupations. The crockery seller is busy attending to customers while aspiring footmen accompany the aristocratic passengers in their carriage. Goya's attention to detail transports us back to a time when street traders were an integral part of urban life. The painting not only captures moments frozen in time but also reflects societal aspirations and class divisions prevalent during that era. Housed at Museo del Prado in Madrid, this print serves as a visual reminder of Goya's artistic brilliance and his ability to encapsulate city life with all its complexities.
