Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes

Dios se lo pague a usted (D. 24; H. 25)

Goya's Dios se lo pague a usted is a rare trial proof etching with aquatint and drypoint from circa 1810, representing a highly scarce state before letters. The impression demonstrates delicate wiping marks and bright qualities, printed on laid paper with Hudelist watermark before 1867.
