I´m fascinated with this late drawing of Goya titled “I am still learning”. On his last years of his hard life, after the lost of his friends and relatives, sick, deaf and probably suffering mental problems, Goya kept on working and studying. There is a huge strength in this apparently weak and old man, who is gripping the walking sticks to stand on. That´s the philosophy of life of the painter that I appropriate for myself: “I am still learning”.
The drawing has been recently restored and in exhibited in the Prado museum.
