"Se Aprovechan - They Make Use Of Them - Sie Machen Sich's Zunutze" is an evocative etching by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, created as part of his influential series "Los Desastres de la Guerra" (The Disasters of War). This series, consisting of 82 prints, was produced between 1810 and 1820, though it was not published until 1863, many years after Goya's death. The etchings are a harrowing visual commentary on the brutalities and inhumanities of war, specifically reflecting on the Peninsular War (1808-1814) between Napoleonic France and Spain.

"Se Aprovechan" is a poignant example of Goya's ability to capture the grotesque and tragic aspects of human conflict. The title, which translates to "They Make Use Of Them" in English and "Sie Machen Sich's Zunutze" in German, suggests exploitation and opportunism amidst chaos. The etching depicts a grim scene where the suffering and vulnerability of individuals are laid bare, highlighting the moral decay and opportunistic behavior that often accompany wartime.

Goya's technique in this etching, as in others from the series, combines aquatint and drypoint, allowing for a range of tonal effects that enhance the emotional impact of the imagery. The stark contrasts and meticulous details draw the viewer into the scene, evoking a visceral response to the depicted atrocities. The artist's unflinching portrayal of violence and suffering serves as a powerful indictment of the senselessness of war and the depths of human cruelty.

"Se Aprovechan" and the broader "Los Desastres de la Guerra" series are considered seminal works in the history of art, not only for their technical mastery but also for their profound social and political commentary. Goya's work in this series has influenced countless artists and continues to resonate as a timeless critique of the horrors of war and the darker aspects of human nature.
