EDITORS COMMENTS
In this haunting etching titled "The Horrors of War: One Can't Look". Francisco de Goya captures the raw and devastating reality of armed conflict. Created in the 18th to 19th century, Goya's work serves as a powerful testament to the atrocities witnessed during his lifetime. The scene depicted is both gripping and disturbing, showcasing the artist's ability to convey intense emotions through his masterful technique. The viewer is confronted with a chaotic battlefield, where violence reigns supreme. Goya's attention to detail allows us to witness the horrors up close - dismembered bodies strewn across the ground, anguished faces contorted in pain, and soldiers engaged in brutal combat. This print serves as a stark reminder of war's destructive nature and its impact on humanity. It forces us to confront our own discomfort at witnessing such brutality while highlighting society's tendency towards violence throughout history. As we gaze upon this artwork from Heritage Art/Heritage Images within The Cleveland Museum of Art collection, we are compelled not only to acknowledge these dark chapters but also reflect on our role in preventing future conflicts. Through Goya's unflinching portrayal of war's consequences, he urges us never to turn away from its horrors but rather confront them head-on for lasting change.
