"Los Desastres de la Guerra" (The Disasters of War) is a series of 82 prints created by the Spanish painter and printmaker Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746–1828). This series, produced between 1810 and 1820, is Goya's visual protest against the violence of the Peninsular War (1808–1814) between Spain and the invading forces of Napoleon Bonaparte, as well as the subsequent political turmoil in Spain.

The third print in the series, typically not referred to individually by a unique title, continues the harrowing depiction of the atrocities and the suffering endured by individuals during this period. Like the rest of the series, it is characterized by its stark and unflinching portrayal of war, and is considered an early form of reportage or journalistic illustration. Goya's use of etching, aquatint, and sometimes drypoint in these prints allows for a dramatic interplay of light and shadow, emphasizing the brutality and the despair of the scenes depicted.

The "Los Desastres de la Guerra" series is divided into three thematic groups: the first group depicts the horrors of the war itself; the second focuses on the resulting famine in Madrid; and the third is a series of allegorical and often bitter commentaries on the political situation in the post-war period. The third print belongs to the first group, directly confronting the viewer with the visceral reality of conflict.

Goya's work on this series was not published during his lifetime, perhaps due to its politically sensitive content and the artist's fear of reprisal. The prints were first published in 1863, 35 years after Goya's death, and they have since been recognized as a seminal work in the canon of Western art, influencing both the Romantic movement and later, the development of modernist art practices. The series is also an important precursor to the socially engaged artwork of the 19th and 20th centuries, presaging the works of artists who would similarly tackle subjects of social injustice and human suffering.

The "Los Desastres de la Guerra" prints are held in various museum collections around the world, including the Museo del Prado in Madrid, and they continue to be the subject of extensive scholarly research and exhibition, reflecting their enduring impact on art and society.
