EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a preparatory drawing by Francisco de Goya y Lucientes titled "Destres of the war: Vaines complaints" (Clamores vanos) from 1810-1820. The artwork, housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain, depicts the misery and suffering caused by war during the Napoleonic era. In this poignant scene, an officer from Napoleon's army passes through a poverty-stricken village. The destitute inhabitants express their vain complaints as they witness the cruelty and violence inflicted upon them. Goya's red pencil strokes convey both the despair and indifference prevalent during this tumultuous period of Spanish history. Through his artistry, Goya highlights not only the physical hardships endured by those affected by war but also their emotional distress. The artist masterfully portrays human vulnerability amidst poverty and adversity. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences of armed conflict on ordinary people's lives. It invites viewers to reflect on our shared humanity and question societal indifference towards such suffering. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures this thought-provoking artwork in her photo print, allowing us to appreciate Goya's artistic genius while contemplating its profound message about war, violence, and human resilience.
