PRINT: THE HERMITAGE OF SAN ISIDRO, MADRID. GOYA

Description:
- Color print of The Hermitage of San Isidro.
- Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828) was a Spanish painter and engraver. His work encompasses easel and mural painting, engraving, and drawing. His style evolved from Rococo, through Neoclassicism, to Pre-Romanticism, always interpreted in a personal and original way, and always with an underlying trait of naturalism, reflecting reality without an idealistic vision that sweetens or distorts it, where the ethical message is equally important.
- The painting, The Hermitage of San Isidro, was painted by Goya for his tapestry cartoon series. It depicts the Hermitage of San Isidro and the celebration of the feast of Saint Isidore the Farmer. A group of majas (women in traditional dress) sit on the ground awaiting their companions, who arrive with glasses of holy water. In the background, a crowd queues to access the fountain, and the figures of two members of the Royal Guard, recognizable by their uniforms, can be distinguished, which could indicate the presence of the King or the Prince and Princess of Asturias among those attending.
- The print is glued only at the top to a piece of cardboard with a wide, light green border.
