Disparate claro (Clear folly)

Francisco Goya Y Lucientes 1746 - 1828

Summary

A group of figures are gathered on what seems to be a stage beneath a curtain that is pulled to the right. On the foreground to the right a figure is on their knees with their arms outstretched and pointing at opposite directions. To the left a male figure appears to be tumbling upside down off to the side. On the background to the right a figure stands on the shoulders of a companion reaching the curtain.
