Of What Ill He Die?
EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Satirical Glimpse into 18th Century Spain This intriguing print, titled "Of What Ill He Die?", captures the essence of Francisco Goya's artistic genius and political activism. Created in 1799 as part of his renowned series Los Caprichos, this etching reflects the social repression and economic crisis that plagued Spain during that time. In this scene, we find ourselves inside a dimly lit bedroom where a patient lies on a bed, surrounded by symbolic elements. The central figure is an animal-like creature resembling a mule or donkey, representing ignorance and intellectual oppression prevalent in Spanish society. The patient's attire suggests he belongs to the upper class, wearing a jacket indicative of privilege. Goya employs satire to convey his revulsion towards societal issues. Through meticulous detail, he portrays the absurdity of diagnosing illness based on pulse-taking alone—a common practice at the time—highlighting the lack of scientific knowledge prevailing in medical circles. The artist's political liberalism shines through as he challenges traditional norms and calls for change. This thought-provoking artwork serves as both criticism and commentary on Spain's socio-political climate during the late 18th century. As we observe this print today, it reminds us not only of Goya's extraordinary talent but also how art can be used to shed light on societal injustices. It stands as a testament to his unwavering commitment to exposing truth while evoking
