FRANCISCO JOSÉ DE GOYA Dos a Uno, Meten la Paja en el Culo.
Aquatint and etching on thin Japan paper, circa 1824. 245x355 mm; 9 1/2x14 inches, full margins. Proof before letters and the first published edition by L'Art, Paris, and likely before steel facing of the plate. From Los Proverbios. A brilliant, richly-inked impression with strong contrasts and all the aquatint tones distinct.
According to Harris, "The proofs on Japan are clean-wiped, more lightly inked than the first edition impressions and are almost identical with the working proof." Delteil 220; Harris 266.
