Скачать или смотреть They Can Still Be of Use. Francisco de Goya

http://museogoya.ibercaja.es/
This print shows great sculptural beauty and shares its subject with the subsequent print. After the confrontation outside a fortress, suggested by the horizontal shading lines, peasants and civilians remove the injured from the battlefield in order to treat their wounds. The well-dressed figure in the hat on the left (could this be Goya himself, possibly a protagonist in the event during his return to Madrid from Zaragoza in December 1808?) helps to carry a Spanish officer. There is evident irony in the title: once hidden and healed, they will be useful and necessary for the war; they will still be of use. It is a charitable act of self-interest.

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