On the origin of this and other preparatory drawings for The Caprices, see the commentary on the first of them, corresponding to Caprice number 1 (Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, painter), and on the one corresponding to Caprice 3 (The bogeyman is Coming).
Line of provenance of this drawing: Javier Goya; Mariano Goya, 1854; Valentín Carderera, ca. 1861; Mariano Carderera, 1880; Prado Museum, 1886.
The preparatory drawing for the Caprice no. 4, The rollona's has certain differences with respect to the print. In the background there is a toy wheelbarrow instead of the cauldron of food and the chamber pot. In addition, the scene takes place in a room where the wall behind the child-adult is in shadow and the servant pulling him is in the direction of the light, whereas in the print these details have been lost and replaced by a great darkness.
