• Goya Capriccios around 1880


    Spanish title: Dios la perdone: Y era su madre

    English: God forgive her- It was her Mother

    The girl left home very young. Her apprenticeship was gotten at Cadiz and then she went to Madrid.
    Here she won a lottery prize. She goes for a walk along the Prado.
    A dirty, shrivelled hag begs her for alms.
    She chases her away, but the old women follows her.
    The hard-hearted girl turns around and sees - who would believe?- The poor old women is her mother!
