FRANCISCO JOSÉ DE GOYA Caritas (San Francisco de Paula).
Etching on heavy cream laid paper, circa 1780. 130x95 mm; 5 1/4x3 3/4 inches, small margins. Second edition (of 2). A very good impression of this extremely scarce, early etching, with strong contrasts and no sign of wear.
According to Harris, very few impressions were made of either the first or second editions. Harris dates the print to the christening of Goya's (1746-1828) second son, Francisco de Paula Antonio Benito. Delteil 2; Harris 3.
