"Two Plates, From Los Desastres De La Guerra" by Francisco De Goya y Lucientes are part of a larger series of 82 prints created between 1810 and 1820, which depict the horrors and brutalities of war. This series, known as "The Disasters of War" in English, is widely regarded as one of Goya's most powerful and haunting works. The prints were not published until 1863, many years after Goya's death, due to their graphic and politically sensitive content.

Goya, a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker, created these etchings in response to the Peninsular War (1808-1814), a conflict between Napoleon's French Empire and the allied powers of Spain, Britain, and Portugal. The series captures the devastating impact of the war on soldiers and civilians alike, portraying scenes of violence, famine, and suffering with unflinching realism. The two plates in question, like the rest of the series, employ a combination of etching, drypoint, and aquatint techniques, showcasing Goya's mastery of printmaking.

The imagery in "The Disasters of War" is stark and often gruesome, reflecting Goya's deep disillusionment with the human capacity for cruelty. The prints are devoid of heroism, instead presenting a raw and unvarnished view of the atrocities committed by both sides during the conflict. Goya's work in this series is considered a precursor to modern war photography and has influenced countless artists and thinkers in their contemplation of war and its consequences.

The series is divided into three thematic groups: the first deals with the conflict itself, the second with the resulting famine in Madrid, and the third with the political and social consequences of the war. Each plate is accompanied by a brief, often cryptic caption that adds to the emotional and intellectual impact of the images. Goya's "The Disasters of War" remains a seminal work in the history of art, offering a timeless commentary on the brutality of human conflict.
