What do you guys think about the Black Paintings by Francisco

this reminds me about berserk

saw an exhibition with a heap of the Disasters of War prints a couple of years ago, they were really evocative, full of energy, striking images.

Do you have any meaningful commentary?
Or do you just think they're pretty pictures that are
>interesting
?

Was there really any reason for you to post other than to say 'this is my favorite meme painting, I like it'?

I asked an actual question, your rhetoric is shitposting.

>>418811
the fact that you called it a "meme painting" is what makes you a shitposter, but whatever I'll take the b8.

These paintings are fascinating to me. The idea that we can look into the disease-ridden mind of a dying genius, who's strife over the political destruction of his country and also his faithlessness of the human race that he painted straight onto the walls of his home like a man in an insane asylum, is fucking incredible, and I was curious as to what other people thought of them

Then you would have been better off posting the caprichos than than his black paintings.

I saw them when I went to Spain. He painted a lot of them just straight-up on his walls, so they straight-up took the walls out and put them in the museum.

They're weird, and I guess important, but I'm a philistine who just likes art that looks nice. Thought his Maja was beautiful.

because the way in which the black paintings were created is creepy as hell. He painted them straight onto the walls in his home, with no intention of anybody ever seeing them. It makes them feel more authentic imo

It was him realizing he was wrong for creating false propaganda against a truly great leader.
