Pretty Advice, Plate 15 is a 1799 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows two women sitting side by side on a bench. One holds a baby, while the other leans in, looking serious. Their clothes are old-fashioned—long skirts, shawls, and a dark hat. The background is dark and blurry, like a night scene with trees and a sky. The title at the bottom says *"Bellas consejas"*—Spanish for "pretty advice." It looks like one woman is giving the other some serious (or maybe not-so-nice) words of wisdom. If you like this style, check out chiaroscuro.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
