On the origin of this and other preparatory drawings for The Caprices, see the commentary on the first of them, corresponding to Caprice number 1 (Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, painter), and on the one corresponding to Caprice 3 (The bogeyman is Coming).
Line of provenance of this drawing: Javier Goya; Mariano Goya, 1854; Valentín Carderera, ca. 1861; Mariano Carderera, 1880; Prado Museum, 1886.
The sketch for engraving no. 19 of The Caprices, All Will Fall, does not differ significantly from the print. The decoy in the drawing is slightly sketched, as are the bird-men who come to lure him, as their human faces are difficult to make out, whereas in the print all these elements are more defined and detailed.
The drawing is very deteriorated as the light has damaged the paper.
This drawing was transported to copper.
