![In an etching on beige paper, a little person sits cross-legged among books, papers, and a pot of ink. He wears an 18th-century suit and wide-brimmed hat. Text at the bottom is in Spanish. Translated into English reads: “Taken and captured from the original painting of Diego Velazquez which represents the Dwarf of King Philip IV by Francisco Goya, [illegible] in the Royal Palace of Madrid, 1773.”](https://risdmuseum.cdn.picturepark.com/v/30nZFhwZ/)
