EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Francisco Goya y Lucientes' powerful artwork titled "The wrong woman Anthropophagy Scene, a witch has a child". The grey wash drawing depicts a haunting scene of violence and ugliness, exploring themes of witchcraft, cruelty, and ritual. Goya's masterful use of shading brings out the oldness and infanticide present in the image. In this thought-provoking piece, we see an old man surrounded by occult symbols as he holds a newborn child. The juxtaposition between youth and age raises questions about sacrifice and the dark depths of human nature. The artist skillfully captures the tension between innocence and malevolence. Goya's work from the 19th century reflects his deep understanding of artistry and storytelling. His attention to detail evokes strong emotions within viewers, forcing them to confront uncomfortable truths about society. This print is housed in Paris' prestigious Musee du Louvre, where it stands as a testament to Goya's artistic genius. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to provoke introspection and challenge societal norms. With its exploration of anthropophagy (the act of consuming human flesh) alongside themes such as childhood, mealtime rituals, and occult science, this artwork invites viewers into a world both familiar yet disturbingly unfamiliar. Overall, this print offers an intriguing glimpse into Goya's profound imagination while serving as a striking commentary on humanity itself.
