Life in Madrid offered enough reason for scornful observations. Many his sheets adress the lack of morals, the life of prostitutes and their panderers. One should not be surprised about the illustrations being quiet obscene at times; the days of Rococo were used to that." (Richard Oertel, Francisco de Goya, Bielefeld/Leipzig 1907, pp. 92ff., published in the series of artist monographies, vol. 49, published byH. Knackfuß)
