Friar Pedro clubs El Maragato with the butt of the gun, 1806.
Oil on panel, 30.3 x 39.9 cm.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes was a passionate chronicler of the spectrum of human experience, from the mundane to the most brutal political events. The story of the capture of the dreaded Spanish bandit El Maragato in 1806 by the humble monk Pedro de Zaldivia caught the artist’s imagination. It also caught the attention of the Spanish population. The event was publicized in newspapers and pamphlets and became the subject of ballads, popular prints, and paintings.
