The Painted Story
Francisco Goya's Black Paintings are a series of 14 haunting murals he painted directly onto the walls of his home, Quinta del Sordo (House of the Deaf), between 1819 and 1823. Francisco Goya
These works were never meant to be seen by the public. Filled with themes of madness, fear, violence, old age, death, and despair, they reflect Goya's dark state of mind after illness, war, and political turmoil in Spain.
Today, they are housed in Museo del Prado.
A common interpretation is that the Black Paintings are among the earliest works of modern psychological art, offering a deeply personal glimpse into Goya's fears and the darker side of humanity.
