"¡Que Valor!" is one of the 82 prints in Francisco de Goya y Lucientes' renowned 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 brutality and suffering caused by the Peninsular War (1808-1814), fought between Napoleonic France and the allied powers of Spain, Britain, and Portugal. Goya, a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker, is often considered one of the most important artists of his time, and his works frequently reflect his deep concern for the human condition and the social injustices of his era.

"¡Que Valor!" translates to "What Courage!" and is a striking example of Goya's ability to convey intense emotion and narrative through his etchings. The print depicts a scene of harrowing bravery, where a woman, possibly inspired by the real-life figure of Agustina de Aragón, is shown defending her city against French troops. The composition captures the chaos and desperation of war, with the central figure standing resolute amidst the turmoil, embodying the spirit of resistance and the often-overlooked role of women in wartime.

Goya's technique in "¡Que Valor!" is notable for its dramatic use of light and shadow, which heightens the sense of urgency and peril. His mastery of etching and aquatint allows for a range of textures and tones, creating a vivid and dynamic image that draws the viewer into the scene. The print, like many in the series, serves as both a historical document and a powerful artistic statement, reflecting Goya's critical perspective on the horrors of war and the resilience of the human spirit.

"Los Desastres de la Guerra" was not published until 1863, many years after Goya's death, due to its controversial and graphic content. Today, "¡Que Valor!" and the entire series are celebrated for their artistic brilliance and their unflinching commentary on the savagery of conflict, making them enduring works of historical and cultural significance.
