The Horrors of War: Why? by Francisco de Goya. A black and white drawing on off-white paper of four men in an outdoor setting. The man on the left wears a hat and a short-sleeved shirt and holds a sword in the right hand raised above the head of a man in the center who has a long beard. The man to the right of the bearded man bends forward at the waist and holds a sword in both hands. The man on the far right wears a hat and a short-sleeved shirt and holds a sword in the right hand raised near the head of the man bent over. The center man looks to the left with an open mouth. The text "Por que?" is written at the bottom center of the drawing. The background includes trees and a light sky.
