Si son de otro linage is an original artwork realized by the great Spanish artist Francisco Goya in 1810. Original Etching on paper. The artwork belongs to the famous series "Los Desastres de la Guerra" realized during the years of the Independence Spanish War and published for the first time in 1863 and representing the horrors and the despair of the War. Titled on the lower central margin "Si son de otro linage" (They come from another lineage). Numbered on the upper left corner. Etching N. 61. Very good conditions. A group of poor people, among which the most destitute in reaching out to ask for charity stands out, symmetrically opposes a group of bourgeois. The one with the bicorn, elegant and fashionable, represents the speculative class, enriched with war, as the Gaceta de Madrid wrote in 1812: "We have seen giants of power and wealth rising from nowhere; we have seen others swimming before in the opulence of wearing indigence ". The other are perhaps representing the bourgeois with the hat, serious and aged, whom Goya places on a lower level in the press, to show his social inferiority respect to the new rich who also turns his back on the poor, because he cannot take anything, as if they were of another lineage or other human condition. Among the characters who converse we note the face of a beautiful young woman who looks fixedly at the viewer, detached from everything and everyone. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
