The Third of May 1808 is a painting completed in 1814 by the Spanish painter Francisco Goya, now in the Museo del Prado, Madrid. In the work, Goya sought to commemorate Spanish resistance to Napoleons armies during the occupation of 1808 in the Peninsular War. Along with its companion piece of the same size, The Second of May 1808 , it was commissioned by the provisional government of Spain at Goyas suggestion.
The paintings content, presentation, and emotional force secure its status as a groundbreaking, archetypal image of the horrors of war. Although it draws on many sources from both high and popular art, The Third of May 1808 marks a clear break from convention. Diverging from the traditions of Christian art and traditional depictions of war, it has no distinct precedent, and is acknowledged as one of the first paintings of the modern era. According to the art historian Kenneth Clark, The Third of May 1808 is the first great picture which can be called revolutionary in every sense of the word, in style, in subject, and in intention.
The Third of May 1808 has inspired a number of other major paintings, including a series by douard Manet, and Pablo Picassos Massacre in Korea and Guernica.
作者简介:
Francisco Goya
Francisco Jos de Goya y Lucientes was an Spanish romantic painter and printmaker regarded both as the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns. Goya was a court painter to the Spanish Crown, and through his works was both a commentator on and chronicler of his era. The subversive imaginative element in his art, as well as his bold handling of paint, provided a model for the work of later generations of artists, notably Manet, Picasso andFrancis Bacon.
