English: This tapestry is one from an early set (the Second Series) with typical and native themes commissioned by the future Charles IV for the dining room at El Pardo Palace in Madrid. It was woven at the Spanish royal tapestry factory of Santa Bárbara after the oil painting by Goya dated 1777 now in the Museo del Prado. The men appear dressed in the voluminous cloaks prohibited by an unpopular government decree that precipitated the Rebellion of Esquilache in 1766. These traditional cloaks were banned because of the anonymity they afforded and the easy concealment of firearms they provided. The mass riots in Madrid brought down the government of the Marquis of Esquilache, the chief minister of Charles III.
