1746 1828 Francisco Goya Lucientes Sobre Taking Walk Aisa Tinta
EDITORS COMMENTS
Francisco de Goya y Lucientes's captivating drawing, "Majas taking a walk," showcases the Spanish artist's mastery of the china technique, executed with a brush on verjurado paper in the year 1828. This historical artwork is a testament to Goya's unparalleled ability to capture the essence of everyday life with profound depth and sensitivity. In this exquisite drawing, two women, the Majas, are depicted strolling through a lush, verdant landscape. The older woman, dressed in a flowing, red dress, holds a parasol to shield herself from the sun, while the younger woman, wearing a simple, white gown, looks back over her shoulder with a playful smile. Their casual, relaxed demeanor invites the viewer into their world, creating an intimate connection between the subjects and the audience. The intricate details of the drawing, from the delicate folds of the women's clothing to the textured foliage, are rendered with remarkable precision and skill. The use of china, a technique that involves applying ink with a brush directly onto dampened paper, adds a unique texture and depth to the artwork, enhancing the overall visual impact. As one of the most celebrated works by the renowned Spanish painter, "Majas taking a walk" is an essential addition to any collection of historical art. This drawing not only showcases the artistic prowess of Francisco de Goya but also offers a glimpse into the daily life of 19th-century Spain, making it an invaluable piece of art history.
