Most people know Goya from his work "The Disasters of War (Spanish: Los desastres de la guerra) " being a series of 82 prints created between 1810 and 1820 : https://artfacts.net/exhibition/goya...-sleeps/895569
but also most interesting is a painting called The Second of May 1808, also known as The Charge of the Mamelukes (Spanish: El 2 de mayo de 1808 en Madrid, La lucha con los mamelucos or La carga de los mamelucos) Created: 1814. Medium: oil on canvas . Dimensions: 8'9" x 11'4" in Museo Nacional del Prado (Prado Museum); Madrid, Spain. Having been on an exhibition of Dali - Goya , Dali loved and was inspired by Goya, specially his war topics. As a result you can see some influances on Dali's 'The Battle of Tetuan', 1961 . Enclosed both paintings , some details and 2 studies of Dali |
