FRANCISCO JOSÉ DE GOYA
Hasta la muerte.

Aquatint and etching, circa 1799. 215x150 mm; 8 1/2x6 inches, wide margins. First edition. From Los Caprichos. A brilliant, early, richly-inked impression with the different aquatint tones distinct and with the drypoint on the maid's right cheek and the burnishing on the two men standing behind the dressing table undiminished, consistent with the earliest impressions of this subject. Delteil 92; Harris 90.
