Plate 77 from Los Caprichos - What one does to another (Unos a otros. ), 1799
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white etching by Francisco Goya, titled "Plate 77 from Los Caprichos: What one does to another" takes us back to the vibrant bullfighting arenas of 18th century Spain. The image depicts a foolish man, spear in hand, engaging in the age-old tradition of bullfighting. Goya's masterful satire shines through as he critiques the concept of human folly and cruelty. The artist uses his sharp wit to expose the absurdity of this practice, highlighting how one individual can inflict harm upon another for mere entertainment. The intense energy captured within this print transports us into a world where men test their courage against powerful animals. Goya's intricate details bring every element to life - from the muscular form of the bull charging towards its tormentor, to the determined expression on the face of the man holding his weapon. As we gaze at this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Goya's exceptional artistic talent but also his ability to provoke contemplation about societal norms and values. This work serves as a testament to Goya's enduring legacy as an artist who fearlessly challenged conventions and shed light on human behavior. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print invites viewers to reflect upon our own actions towards others and question whether such practices truly align with our moral compasses.
