EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Francisco Goya's iconic masterpiece, "GOYA: SECOND OF MAY 1808. The Second of May 1808 (The Charge of the Mamelukes)". In this powerful depiction, we witness a pivotal moment during the French occupation of Madrid, Spain. The chaos and drama unfold on Calle de Alcala as Mamluks from the French Imperial Guard ruthlessly attack a crowd of innocent civilians. Painted with meticulous detail in 1814, Goya captures the intensity of this historical event that took place six years earlier. Mounted on horseback, these fearsome horsemen charge through the streets wielding scimitars and clad in their distinctive turbans. Their presence instills fear and panic among the Spanish population who find themselves caught up in this violent melee. Goya's masterful brushstrokes bring to life every nuance - from the expressions of terror on the faces of civilians to the determination etched onto each rider's moustached face. This painting serves as a poignant reminder of Spain's struggle during the Peninsular War against Napoleon Bonaparte's forces. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to an early morning in May 1808 when history was forever altered by conflict and bravery. It is a testament to Goya's genius that he could capture such raw emotion and turmoil within his canvas. This print is part of Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection, providing art enthusiasts with an opportunity to appreciate fine art
