Like Velázquez in the 17th century, Goya was an artist to the Spanish Royal Court. He worked in a variety of media, from tapestry design and painting to printing. While his posthumous fame derived from the satirical series Caprichos and the Disasters of War , he also produced other types of prints. Some of his earliest were reproductive etchings after Velázquez’s much-prized portraits and history paintings. Goya would have seen the originals hanging in the Royal Palace in Madrid (now in the Museo del Prado).
