About

Titlepage and 18 plates from Goya's series known as Los Proverbios (The Proverbs) or Los Disparates (The Follies). Goya probably worked on the plates between 1816 and 1824. This is a complete set of the first edition, printed in the workshop of Laurenciano Potenciano, and published posthumously by the Academia de San Fernando in Madrid in 1864.
