"Escarramán, rufianes y la muerte" (1966), de Carlos Fossatti: un Escarramán uruguayo

Abstract

The author of this article analyses an unknown engraving by the Uruguayan Carlos Fossatti on the topic of Escarraman, trying to emphasize the relations between the text of Quevedo and the plastic hypertext of Fossatti, and the contribution of Quevedo’s jacaras to the specificity of the artistic and sociocultural context of the Uruguay around the years 1960-1970.
