DescriptionRed/brown ink, plate tone, bevel.
Posthumous trial proof for the Academia de San Fernando, about 1863-1864 (H. II, 2).
The preferred series title "Disparates" (Follies) is derived from manuscript titles containing the word "Disparate" on fourteen of the working proofs, of which this is one. Beruete and others invented titles containing "Disparate" for the rest, except "Modo de volar" (no. 13).
