		Goya was 46 years old at the time, had experienced his fair measure success, tasted the intrigue and frivolity at court and had seen most of his children die in childhood.
		Goya had ceded the 80 plates and all the existing prints to the crown in exchange for a stipend for his son, Javier.

		"Goya's portrait of himself being nursed by his physician is inscribed: 'Goya in gratitude to his friend Arrieta for the skill and care with which he saved his life in his acute and dangerous illness suffered at the end of the year 1819 at the age of 73.
		He painted it in 1820.' Goya otherwise celebrated his rescue from the jaws of death by decorating the walls of his villa, the Quinta del Sordo, with the fourteen 'fl paintings', which by and large are the most sickening images he ever painted.
		In a Goya drawing of, say, two men fighting, the drama lies less in how they are seen to act in relation to each other than in the expressiveness of the configuration which their combined forms establish on the page.

		This painting was among the second group of 10 cartoons displayed in the dining room of the Prince and Princess of Asturias —the future King Charles IV and Maria Luisa de Parma— in the Palace of the Pardo in Madrid.
		Goya again shows his ability to capture a moment in action, here he fills the scene with great vitality and life, as well as the sensuality of eating and sharing out in the open landscape.
		This was around the time that he became totally deaf, as the smile on the child in the painting shows, happiness mixed with aprehension and maybe fear, which is different from the usual bliss of his scenes which were to decorate the palaces dining rooms.

		Bayeu (con cuya hermana, Josefa, habría de casarse Goya más adelante) tuvo una enorme influencia en la formación temprana de Goya y a él se debe que participara en un encargo importante, los frescos de la iglesia de la Virgen del Pilar en Zaragoza (1771, 1780-1782), y que se instalara más tarde en la corte.
		Goya disfrutó de una posición especial en la corte, hecho que determinó que el Museo del Prado de Madrid heredara una parte muy importante de sus obras, entre las que se incluyen los retratos oficiales y los cuadros de historia.
		Goya no dejó herederos artísticos inmediatos, pero su influencia fue muy fuerte en los grabados y en la pintura de mediados del siglo XIX y en el arte del siglo XX.

		Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (March 30, 1746 - April 15, 1828) was a Spanish painter and engraver.
		His later influence is significant since his art was both deeply subversive and subjective, at a time when these attitudes were not predominant.
		Goya was a portraitist of royalty and chronicler of history who produced a series of eighty prints that he titled Los Caprichos depicting what he called "the innumerable foibles and follies to be found in any civilized society, and from the common prejudices and deceitful practices which custom, ignorance, or self-interest have made usual."
