Answer:
The correct answer is letter "b".
<em>Francisco Goya</em> painted the image above.
Explanation:
This engraving known as "The dream of reason produces monsters" belongs to the series "Los Caprichos", and was made in 1799. In this series the artist Goya expresses the contradictions of modern art that evidences the conflict between rationality and ancient forms of thinking reality and performing artistic works.
The historical context in which this work was carried out was eighteenth-century Spain mired in the chaos of war and under the weight of religion that still practiced the punishments of the Inquisition.
In this case, it can be said that the engraving has a social function since the artist is politically committed to the revolutionary process against the Old Regime.
Goya expresses in this artistic work his position in favor of European Illuminism and also states that art and its sensitivity, as an expression of thought and intellect, cannot be reduced by reason.
