Скачать или смотреть The Men in Sacks. Francisco de Goya

http://museogoya.ibercaja.es/
This appears to be a criticism by Goya of the political situation created by the return of absolutism under King Ferdinand VII in 1814, which was characterised by a total lack of freedom and by oppression. In a nocturnal setting a series of men appear with their bodies in sacks, leaving their arms immobilised. Only their heads are free. Those in the foreground seem to be bowing their heads in an attitude of reverence towards a person of standing, who is distinguished by his haughty expression and by his aristocratic wig or headdress. Others, with their backs turned, distance themselves from the main group in a disordered line.

Goya lives in Zaragoza! Visit him in the new Goya Museum. Ibercaja Collection - Camón Aznar Museum.
