Look How Solemn They Are!, Plate 63 is a 1799 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting depicts a group of three figures, each with a distinct appearance. The figure on the left has a bird-like head and stands upright, while the figure in the center has a more humanoid appearance but with a large head and ears. The third figure, on the right, appears to be a dog or a hybrid creature with a dog's body and a human-like head. The background is dark and shadowy, with the figures standing out in contrast. The figures seem to be engaged in some sort of activity, but it's unclear what they are doing. The central figure appears to be holding something in its hand, while the other two figures seem to be watching or waiting. The overall mood of the painting is one of mystery and intrigue. This painting is part of the Romanticism movement, which emphasizes emotion and imagination.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
