Opera tratta dai "Los Caprichos", per la prima volta pubblicati nel 1799. Prova della quarta edizione di dodici, stampata dalla calcografia di Madrid, circa 1870. Aquaforte, acquatinta brunita e puntasecca, in perfetto stato di conservazione. La serie chiamata Los Caprichos, è composta da ottanta incisioni, la cui prima edizione [l’unica a non essere pubblicata postuma] venne alla luce ne 1799. Curata in fase d’edizione dallo stesso artista, la serie fu commercializzata e dopo poco tempo ritirata dal mercato. Infatti, a causa dei numerosi soggetti che ironizzavano sulla società spagnola di fine secolo, il Goya subì una censura. L’interpretazione dei soggetti rappresentati su queste lastre, sempre enigmatiche, è spesso controversa. Etching with burnished aquatint and engraving, 1799. From the fourth edition of twelve of the so-called "Los Caprichos" series, edited by the Madrid Calcografia [circa 1870].A very good impression, with good contrast, printed on contemporary paper, customary margins, in very good conditions. The series called Los Caprichos, consists of eighty etchings. This first edition of 1799, the only one not to be published posthumously, is imprinted on soft laid pape. Cured in phase edition by the same artist, the series was marketed and before long withdrawn from the market. In fact, because of the many subjects that mocked the Spanish society of the century, Goya suffered censorship. The interpretation of the subjects represented on these plates, always enigmatic, is often controversial. Harris 53, Delteil 55.

Acquaforte e bulino, circa 1810/15. Il titolo dell’opera è tratto da una scrittura a mano in una prova di stampa dell’opera che Goya include nell’album dei “Disastri della guerra” che donò al suo amico Ceán Bermúdez e che ora è conservato al British Museum di Londra. Il disegno preparatorio dell’opera è conservato al Prado di Madrid. Esemplare nel terzo stato di quattro, inserito nella Gazette des Beaux-Arts (1867); si tratta della prima vera edizione dell’opera, conosciuta altrimenti solo attraverso due prove di stampa. "A seated prisoner raises his clasped hands, both fastened with chains, in a gesture of supplication. We cannot see his features since his face is hidden beneath his long, dark hair. His feet are fastened in large shackles. Both the chains and the shackles are of considerable size, underlining their importance in any interpretation of the print. In fact, just as the title of the etching shows, the painter is comparing the excessive zeal employed in preventing the prisoner from escaping to the brutality of the crime he is accused of. It is possible that the way in which the prisoner is secured in this work by Goya was habitual at the time, an idea which is supported by certain passages of Forensic Discourses (Discursos forenses), by Juan Meléndez Valdés (Ribera del Fresno, Badajoz, 1754- Montpellier, 1814), whose portrait Goya painted in 1797. This book, published in Madrid in 1821, speaks of the cumbersome chains and shackles used to hold one María Vicente, put to death on the 23rd April 1798. Goya could well have known of her story: "But it is said that Doña María Vicente must have been treated, as the noblewoman that she is, in a very different manner, and not locked in shackles; and even thus fettered it was the judge's responsibility to examine their state and quality beforehand, to order them put on correctly". The painter has made extensive use of the etching technique here, building up the background with short, horizontal lines, whilst leaving large areas on the prisoner's clothing untouched and white, underlining his innocence. This etching would have been made at the same time as two others: The custody of a prisoner does not call for torture and If he is guilty, let him die quickly. In these images, Goya openly expresses his repulsion of the way in which prisoners were treated, as well as his opposition to the death penalty, echoing the ideas of Cesare Beccaria (Milan, 1738- Milan, 1794). In the pages of the work entitled Dei deliti e delle pene, published between 1763 and 1764, the Milanese talks of the need to modify the penal system, to lessen the severity of punishments and to seek out mechanisms for preventing crime. It is possible that these etchings also contributed to the debate on the abolition of torture which was being discussed in the Courts of Cádiz. Goya reiterates this same topic in some of the prints in his Disasters of War series, such as no. 15, And it can't be helped, no. 31, That's tough!, no. 32, Why?, no. 34, On account of a knife, no. 35, One can't tell why and no. 36, Not in this case either. Despite the gritty subject matter, the figure depicted in this etching possesses great dignity, recalling some earlier precedents which Goya may have been familiar with. One of these is an anonymous print based on Interior of a Prison (16th century, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston), by Giulio Romano (Rome, 1499-Mantua, 1596). When he was making this print, Goya may also have had in mind the disturbing, gloomy ambience of the prisons of Giambattista Piranesi (Mogliano Veneto, Treviso, 1720- Roma, 1778)." (cfr. https://fundaciongoyaenaragon.es/eng/obra/tan-barbara-la-seguridad-como-el-delito/712). Tomás Harris ritiene che la matrice di rame si trovi in una collezione privata di Parigi. Bibliografia Harris 26 III/IV; Delteil 31. Etching and engraving, circa 1810/15. The title of this work is taken from the handwritten title of a state proof that Goya included in the album of his Disasters of War prints which he gave to his friend Ceán Bermúdez and which is now in the British Museum, London. The preparatory drawing for this etching is in the Prado Museum, Madrid. Example of the third state of four, form the Gazette des Beaux-Arts (1867), firts edition of this work, before known only for proof states.
