"How to use GnuPG" is probably best left to the experts:

https://gnupg.org/documentation/guides.html

But here's how I would acquire this key and verify the signature. Note
that the crucial identifier, the key fingerprint, is provided in the
error message of the first command.

------
$ gpg --verify spice-0.14.0.tar.bz2.sign                   
gpg: assuming signed data in 'spice-0.14.0.tar.bz2'

$ gpg --verify spice-0.14.0.tar.bz2.sign

We can be reasonably sure that someone with that private key signed the
tarball. Now, is it the right key? Hopefully the upstream documentation
says which keys are considered "authorized" to sign Spice releases.
