Description from the seller

Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828)
Plate #70 of the "Caprichos", 1799/1970
Etching, polished aquatint
Each sheet with the watermark LANA-PUR FIL.
Copper print from the original copper plate
Title: Plate #70: Devota profesión
Plate size: 447 mm x 310 mm
Image size: 191 mm x 121 mm
This print from the series first published in 1799 and made world-famous comes from the Jean de Bonnot edition (1970).
Each print is stamped on the back (guarantee certificate) and attested that the Bonnot edition was printed from the original plate (engraving) by Goya on Velin Lana paper and that it is not a "bromide" (e.g. heliography) (see stamp on photo in French and Spanish).
Plate #70: The plate was executed in pure aquatint. In the contemporary commentary (Prado) the Hexangel vow is interpreted as a parody of monastic vows. Both rituals have their origin outside human reason.
