Plate 76 from Los Caprichos - You understand?. . . well, as I say. .
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Francisco Goya transports us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the artist's satirical genius. Titled "You understand?. . . well, as I say. . . ", this etching is part of Goya's renowned series known as Los Caprichos. In this thought-provoking image, we find ourselves in a country setting where a disabled man stands on crutches wearing tattered clothing. His cocked hat adds an air of military significance to his character. Goya masterfully captures the essence of disability and foolishness through his portrayal of this individual. The artist challenges our perception of societal norms and mocks those who underestimate or dismiss individuals with disabilities. Through satire and wit, he urges us to look beyond appearances and prejudices. Goya's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; even the soldier in the background seems oblivious to the man's struggles. The stark contrast between their attire highlights social disparities prevalent during that era. As we contemplate this powerful artwork at The Metropolitan Museum, it serves as a reminder that appearances can be deceiving. It encourages us to question our own biases and preconceived notions about others based on their physical abilities or circumstances. Francisco Goya's Plate 76 from Los Caprichos invites us into a world where disability becomes an instrument for reflection on society itself—a timeless message that still resonates today.
