Image description

Plate 52 from Los Caprichos. This etching shows a woman kneeling in prayer in front of what appears to be a large hooded friar. However on second inspection, foliage can be seen emerging from where the friar's hands should be and it becomes clear that this is just a tree dressed up as a priest. The message is quite clearly a critique of the clergy: just because he is dressed up as a priest does not necessarily make him good or virtuous.
