| Sumario: | The authenticity of Orosia Moreno's auto-da-fé, an episode mentioned and described in a folio by Francisco Goya that belongs to his Album C of drawings, has been discussed over the decades. Documentary evidence proving this was a real event that took place during Goya's childhood sheds light on the drawing itself and the circumstances surrounding the scene depicted. Furthermore, Goya's re-elaboration of an event that happened half a century earlier calls for a comparative analysis of his strategic invocation of memory as a framework to interpret the present. La veracidad del auto de fe de Orosia Moreno, un suceso mencionado y representado por Goya en una hoja perteneciente a su Álbum C de dibujos, ha sido cuestionada durante décadas. La confirmación documental de que se trata de un acontecimiento real que tuvo lugar durante la niñez de Goya clarifica las circunstancias que rodean a la escena y el dibujo que la ilustra. Asimismo, la alusión por parte de Goya a un acontecimiento trascurrido medio siglo antes sugiere la pertinencia de un análisis comparativo de su uso estratégico de la memoria como marco desde el que interpretar el presente. |
