EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "La Feria de Madrid, 1778" a remarkable oil on canvas painting by Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes. The artwork, measuring an impressive 258x218 cm, is housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. The image captures a vibrant scene from the renowned Madrid Fair of the 18th century. It beautifully reflects the social classes and economic situation of that era. In this bustling market setting, we witness a stark contrast between different groups of people. At the forefront are two women dressed elegantly in aristocratic attire, engrossed in conversation with a man who appears to be a merchant or trader. Their lowered hands and respectful demeanor suggest reverence towards his wares. Behind them stands another group consisting of buyers and sellers engaged in various transactions. A couple can be seen examining antiquities displayed on mirrors while bowing respectfully to their seller. Goya's masterful brushwork skillfully depicts daily life during this fair, highlighting not only the commercial aspect but also capturing moments of reflection and respect among individuals from different walks of life. This print offers viewers an intriguing glimpse into Spanish society at that time - its intricate social hierarchy and diverse economic activities all captured within one magnificent painting.
