Presentation Transcript

  1. To occupy my imagination, mortified in consideration of my ills, and to recuperate in part the great expenses that they have caused, I devoted myself to painting a set of cabinet paintings, in which I have realized observations that are usually not permitted by commissioned works, and in which caprice and invention have no greater extension. --Goya on the presentation of this and other “Cabinet Pictures” to the Royal Academy, 1794 Yard with Lunatics, 1793-1794.

  2. Goya, Los Caprichos, title page, 1799.

  3. A collection of prints and capricious subjects, invented and etched by Don Francisco Goya. The author is persuaded that the censure of human error and vices (although this seems the preserve of oratory and poetry) may also be a worthy object of painting: as subjects appropriate to his work, he has selected from a multitude of stupidities and errors common to every civil society, and from among the ordinary obfuscation and lies condoned by custom, ignorance or self-interest, those which he believes most appropriate to furnish material for ridicule, and at the same time, fantasy.

  4. Los Caprichos (43): The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters.

  11. Goya thankful to his friend Arrieta: for the skill and care with which he saved his life during his short and dangerous illness, endured at the end of 1819, at seventy-three years of age. He painted it in 1820. Goya, Self Portrait with Dr. Arrieta, 1820.
