About the Item

This artwork belongs to the Third Edition published in 1868 by the Calcografia National for the Real Academia. The full edition includes 80 satirical plates numbered on the upper margin from 1 to 80 and titled in Spanish on the lower margin. Etching number 47. Titled on the lower central margin "Obsequio a el Maestro" (A Gift for the Master). The plate is in excellent and the impression is very fresh. On the left side margin there are several punctures that indicate the presence of an original seam. The work shows some old women with deformed faces kissing and praying a small figure of a baby. With this artwork, Goya wanted to show us the the boorish obsequious people and the reverence through an old and boring political class. This artwork is shipped from Italy.
