"Que Sacrificio" (What Sacrifice) is one of the 82 etchings that comprise Francisco de Goya y Lucientes' series "Los Desastres de la Guerra" (The Disasters of War), created between 1810 and 1820. This series is a poignant and unflinching portrayal of the horrors and brutalities of the Peninsular War (1808-1814), which was fought between Napoleonic France and the allied powers of Spain, the United Kingdom, and Portugal. Goya, a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker, is renowned for his critical and often dark depictions of contemporary society, and "Los Desastres de la Guerra" is considered one of his most significant works.

"Que Sacrificio" specifically captures the harrowing reality of war and its devastating impact on human lives. The etching depicts a scene of immense suffering and sacrifice, focusing on the human cost of conflict. Goya employs his masterful technique in etching to convey the raw emotion and physical torment experienced by the figures in the composition. The stark contrasts of light and shadow, along with the meticulous detail, draw the viewer into the scene, evoking a visceral response.

The title "Que Sacrificio" underscores the theme of sacrifice, highlighting the often overlooked and tragic consequences of war on individuals and families. Goya's work in this series is not merely a historical record but also a powerful commentary on the futility and inhumanity of war. His ability to capture the essence of human suffering and resilience has made "Los Desastres de la Guerra" a timeless and universal condemnation of the atrocities of war.

Goya's "Que Sacrificio" and the entire series were not published until 1863, long after his death, due to their controversial and politically sensitive content. Today, these works are celebrated for their artistic brilliance and profound impact on the discourse surrounding war and human rights.
