EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Hasta su abuelo (to his aieul)", transports us to the 19th century world of Francisco Goya y Lucientes. The image, reproduced in the French newspaper "Picturesque Magazine" in 1834, showcases Goya's artistic brilliance and his ability to infuse anthropomorphism into his works. At first glance, we see a donkey seated at a work table wearing an elegant hat. This seemingly ordinary farm animal surprises us with its proud presentation of its genealogy. An album and coat of arms take center stage, displaying the silhouettes of donkey ancestors throughout history. Goya's caricature-like style adds whimsy to this piece as he playfully explores themes of family tree and lineage through the eyes of a humble donkey. The artist masterfully captures both humor and depth within this single frame. As we delve deeper into the details, we appreciate Goya's attention to every element - from the intricate engravings on the desk to the carefully crafted blazon on display. Each stroke tells a story; each line reveals another layer of meaning. "Hasta su abuelo (to his aieul)" is not just an artwork; it is an invitation for contemplation about our own roots and connections. Through this print, Goya reminds us that even unexpected sources can hold rich histories waiting to be discovered. © Patrice Cartier has skillfully captured this remarkable engraving from Fine Art Finder, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to admire Goya's genius anew.
