拍品專文

‘A number of commentators have noted the double-meaning of the word : to be fleeced (of their money) but also to be plucked (of their manhood)…Baldness being associated with syphilis, the subject of this work goes back to the idea of as being ‘plucked’ and is a reference to what Goya and his more contemporaries felt to be the generally low morality of the times and one of its results. Finally, this etching could also be seen as an attack against the clergy and its participation in the low morality of the times. The apparently approving figures in the background could be taken as monks with the one on the right with his rosary on his belt.’

Johnson, R. S., , R.S. Johnson Fine Art, Chicago, 1992, p. 66.
