Handwritten inscription by the artist in the upper right corner: “Agustin.” Titled in the upper left corner: “Goya.” Signed and dated 1970 in the lower right corner. Vitín Cortezo (or Víctor María Cortezo, Madrid, 1908–1978) was one of the multifaceted artists specializing in the design and composition of costumes, and a prominent set designer on the Spanish theater scene during the second and third quarters of the 20th century. His artistic career following the Spanish postwar period of that century—combined with his love of drawing, painting, and fashion design, as well as his outstanding personality—led him to become a true icon of modernity in a stifling Francoist society, in addition to his status as a homosexual and an antifascist, not to mention his affluent family background in the field of medicine.
