クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Now open for bidding! The Sleep of Reason: Francisco Goya's 'Los Caprichos', is an online-only auction featuring a landmark series of prints by the artist published at the dawn of the 19th century, open until 23 October.⠀ .⠀ Widely regarded as 'last old master and the first modern' artist, Goya challenged outmoded traditions and superstitions that dominated the lives of his fellow Spaniards. However, ridiculing the church and state risked making powerful enemies — not least the dreaded Inquisition — and Goya employed allegory and illusion to cover his tracks.⠀ .⠀ The impressions on offer are all from a First Edition copy, published by the artist in 1799, and were formerly in the collection of a member of the Spanish aristocracy.⠀ .⠀ Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828), 'The sleep of reason produces monsters (El sueño de la razón produce monstruos)', Plate 43 from: Los Caprichos. Estimate: $15,000-25,000.⠀ .⠀ The Sleep of Reason: Francisco Goya's Los Caprichos — 8 - 23 October, online⠀ .⠀ #art #artist #goya #oscaprichos #worksonpaper #franciscogoya #onlineauction」10月13日 21時36分
