EDITORS COMMENTS
193-0082172 You will not escape, plate 72 of Los caprichos, 1799 (etching) captures the essence of social criticism through a powerful and thought-provoking image. Created by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes in 1799, this engraving measures 21.7x15.2 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this satirical artwork, Goya portrays a female figure flying with an owl perched on her shoulder. The woman represents desire and coquettishness while the owl symbolizes deceit and corruption. Through his grotesque depiction, Goya criticizes societal norms that prioritize beauty over substance. The title 'You will not escape' suggests temptation as the woman entices viewers with her allure but warns against falling into her trap. Goya's mastery of etching technique brings out intricate details that enhance the overall impact of the artwork. This piece exemplifies Goya's ability to use art as a medium for social commentary during a time when Spain was undergoing significant political and cultural changes. His works continue to resonate today due to their timeless themes and universal relevance. As we contemplate this print from Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of Goya's enduring legacy as one of Europe's most influential painters.
