The Devout Profession, 1799
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by Francisco Goya that delves into the artist's political liberalism and disdain for intellectual oppression. This artwork, Plate 70 of Los caprichos, was published during a time of social repression and economic crisis in Spain. In this thought-provoking image, Goya employs metaphorical elements to convey his message. A mythical centaur-like creature carries an open book on its shoulders while singing from the same hymn sheet as a group of devout figures. The use of music symbolizes religion and Christianity, highlighting their influence on society. Goya's satire becomes evident through the inclusion of tools such as pliers, representing the job or occupation associated with religious devotion. The artist criticizes blind faith and highlights the dangers of ignorance within Spanish society at that time. The monochrome etching adds depth to this eighteenth-century masterpiece, emphasizing both its historical significance and artistic value. Through his mastery of caricature techniques, Goya skillfully captures the essence of each character in this satirical portrayal. "The Devout Profession" serves as a powerful reminder not only of Goya's artistic brilliance but also his commitment to challenging societal norms through visual storytelling. It stands as an enduring testament to his unwavering dedication towards exposing injustice and advocating for political freedom during turbulent times in Spain's history.
