The Horrors of War: They Do Not Agree

Francisco de Goya

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white etching on paper depicts a chaotic battle scene. A man on horseback wearing a feathered hat holds a lance and appears to be positioned in the center-left. The horse faces right. Other men on foot are to the right, some holding weapons. One man on the ground is on the left side. A man on the ground in the center has a white cloth wrapped around his lower body. The scene takes place on a ground plane that slopes down to the right. The background features dark, ominous clouds. The scene is set within a rectangular border. The artwork appears to be mounted on a larger sheet of off-white paper. The scene captures a moment of intense conflict.
