Streghe

ID: #1742 | Romanticismo | Persone

Date: 1798
Medium: oil on canvas
Location: Museo Lazaro Galdiano, Madrid, Španělsko

Il dipinto raffigura una scena notturna con una creatura caprina in piedi sulle zampe posteriori nella parte centrale. Le sue corna sono decorate con rami e foglie. Intorno ad essa si vedono persone in varie posizioni - alcune sedute, altre inginocchiate - che sembrano adorare o sacrificare la creatura. È raffigurato un misto di figure umane e soprannaturali, il che suggerisce un possibile rituale o una cerimonia. Nel cielo brilla una luna crescente e lo sfondo è scuro, tranne che per una debole luce in lontananza.
Creato da un'intelligenza artificiale, si prega di essere indulgenti.

Francisco de Goya (1746-1828). Born in Spain, the son of a goldsmith. His work is characterized by loose brush strokes, an unprecedented release from the obligation to draw exactly according to reality. His works are among the precursors of many future artistic directions (Realism, Romanticism, Impressionism, Expressionism, and Surrealism). He became the court painter to Charles IV and a member of the Academy. Among Goya’s most famous works are the cycle Disasters of War (eg. The Third of May 1808, a picture painted during the Spanish revolution against France, in which Goya utilises his typical brush strokes and plays with light, clearly showing on which side he stands) and portraits Clothed Maja and Naked Maja. The nude was, for the time, sensual, natural, and without unnecessary decorations (flowers, nature, silk). It is no coincidence that, for this painting, Goya was prosecuted by the Inquisition.
