EDITORS COMMENTS
La Filiacion, plate from Los Caprichos, 1799 (etching & aquatint) captures the essence of Francisco Goya's satirical genius. In this macabre yet surreal image, Goya presents a scathing social commentary on the institution of marriage. The print depicts a couple standing side by side in their wedding attire. The bride wears an expressionless mask, symbolizing the facade often put up in arranged marriages or marriages of convenience. Her groom gazes at her with pince-nez glasses perched on his nose, perhaps suggesting his analytical approach to love and relationships. Goya's attention to detail is evident in every element of the composition. A fox lurks behind the couple, representing cunning and deceit within marital unions. The presence of a sacrement further emphasizes the societal pressure to conform to traditional norms. Through this printmaking masterpiece, Goya challenges romanticist ideals while exposing the dark underbelly of matrimony. His use of humor adds another layer to his social criticism as he invites viewers to reflect upon their own notions of love and commitment. This particular print is an excellent representation from one of approximately three hundred impressions published by Goya himself in 1799. Its inclusion in private collections attests to its enduring significance as a powerful work that continues to captivate audiences today.
