Plate 79 from Los Caprichos - No one has seen us (Nadie nos ha visto. ), 1799
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white etching by Francisco Goya, titled "No one has seen us" transports us to the vibrant streets of 18th-century Spain. The image depicts a scene of drunkenness and foolishness, where friars indulge in secret wine drinking within a hidden wine cellar. Goya's satire is evident as he cleverly criticizes the hypocrisy of Christianity and its representatives. Through this artwork, he exposes the secrecy and silliness that often lurks behind religious facades. The artist's sharp wit shines through as he challenges societal norms with his biting commentary on human behavior. The composition itself is masterfully executed, showcasing Goya's exceptional skill in capturing intricate details. The play between light and shadow adds depth to the image, emphasizing the clandestine nature of this gathering. Barrels filled with wine dominate the foreground while monks engage in their revelry amidst an atmosphere charged with both excitement and guilt. As we delve into this historical piece at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are reminded of Goya's enduring legacy as a social commentator. His ability to expose human folly transcends time, making his work relevant even today. This print serves as a powerful reminder that appearances can be deceiving and invites viewers to reflect upon their own notions of truth and authenticity.
