EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Francisco de Goya's iconic masterpiece, "Saturn Devouring His Son" which was created between 1819 and 1823. Originally a mixed media mural transferred to canvas, this artwork is housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. Goya's painting depicts the horrifying mythological tale of Saturn (Cronos) devouring his own child. The artist skillfully captures the gruesome scene with vivid detail and raw emotion. The dark tones and intense brushwork add to the unsettling atmosphere, leaving viewers transfixed by the sheer horror unfolding before their eyes. The photograph beautifully captures every intricate detail of Goya's work, allowing us to appreciate its artistic brilliance even from a distance. It serves as a testament to Goya's mastery as a painter and his ability to evoke strong emotions through his art. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the power that art holds - it has the ability to transport us into different worlds, provoke thought and emotion, and leave an indelible mark on our souls. This particular piece invites contemplation on themes such as mythology, infanticide, human nature, and mortality. In this photograph by Josse Photography © Photo Josse), we are given a glimpse into one of history's most hauntingly beautiful works of art – an enduring testament to Francisco de Goya’s genius.
