EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of Francisco Goya's artistic brilliance. This black and white etching, plate 61 of Los Caprichos series, reflects the turbulent times of social repression and economic crisis in Spain during the late 18th century. In this thought-provoking image, we see a woman with arms outstretched towards the sky, her dream-like expression hinting at a yearning for freedom from poverty and oppression. Dressed in humble attire with a hat on her head, she represents the countless individuals who were trapped in servitude due to their socio-economic circumstances. Goya's satire and political commentary are evident as he uses caricature to highlight the inequality prevalent in Spanish society. The men depicted wearing capes symbolize those who hold power and influence while disregarding the plight of their fellow countrymen. Through his artistry, Goya expresses his revulsion towards ignorance and intellectual oppression. He challenges societal norms by shedding light on the struggles faced by ordinary people living under an oppressive regime. This monochrome masterpiece serves as both a historical document and an artistic critique of its time. It reminds us that even centuries later, issues such as poverty, inequality, and political suppression continue to plague societies around the world. "They have flown" is not just an artwork; it is a powerful reminder that art can be used as a tool for social change – inspiring viewers to question authority and strive for justice in our own modern era
