Hasta la muerte. 1796 - 1797

"Hasta la muerte" is a print from Francisco de Goya’s series “Los Caprichos” (1796-1797). The print depicts a woman in the act of dressing, seemingly obsessed with her appearance. Her preoccupation with her appearance is emphasized through the large, ornate headdress she is adjusting while staring intently at a mirror. Two figures in the background observe her, seemingly critiquing her actions. This work is a social commentary on the superficiality and vanity prevalent in society at the time, reflecting Goya's satirical and often critical view of the human condition.
