La serie de los caprichos, la más conocida del más grande artista español del XVIII siglo, se reinterpreta por Dalí en clave surrealista, con textos aparentemente desconectados de la imagen y detalles "dibujados" a punta seca alrededor/encima/debajo del original de Goya, mostrando el respeto y admiración de Dalí por los grandes maestros, que siempre homenajeó en sus pinturas y obra gráfica, Velazquez, Rembrandt y hasta el propio Goya

Los caprichos is a series of 80 engravings by the Spanish painter Francisco de Goya, which represents a satire of Spanish society at the end of the 18th century, especially of the nobility and clergy.
Goya, closely related to the enlightened, shared his reflections on the defects of his society.
Los Caprichos began to be recorded in 1797, as we know thanks to an article by Valentín Carderera y Solano (Huesca, 1796-Madrid, 1880) with which he announced to the public a set of engravings made by Goya and made up of 72 prints, for sale for a price of 288 reais.
He used a mixed technique of etching, aquatint, and drypoint retouching. He exaggeratedly deformed the physiognomies and bodies of those who represent human vices and awkwardness, giving bestial aspects.
  
In his engravings, Dalí changes or plays with the words of the slogans or titles, which accompany the images at the bottom and explain them. All the prints incorporate Dalinian icons into his drawings to give them a twist.
