Francisco Goya (1746-1828)
The Disparates
The celebrated eighteenth-century Spanish painter
and etcher Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was in his seventies and recovering
from a serious illness when he made his last series of powerful
etchings, The Disparates.
Depicting the folly of mankind, the etchings, produced between 1819
and 1824, are a savage satirical attack on the political and social
customs of his time. They are amongst his most disturbing and obscure
plates and convey Goya's unsettled state of mind.
