Disparate de miedo (Folly of fear)
Francisco Goya Y Lucientes 1746 - 1828
Summary
A tall shrouded figure stands looming over a group of fallen men in uniform. A soldier to the right holds his sword aloft and turns to the right, looking back at the menacing figure as he tries to scape from it. In the background a battle seems to be taking place at the base of a tree on the right.
