1815
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Horrors of War: There Isn't Time Now is a 1815 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows a chaotic scene of violence at night. A man in a hat raises a sword over a woman who’s kneeling, while others crouch or flee in the background. The dark sky and flickering light make the action feel urgent and tense. The title at the bottom, *"Ya no hay tiempo"* ("There Isn’t Time Now"), hints at the desperation in the moment. The artist used stark contrasts between light and shadow to heighten the drama. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how this lighting trick works in other art.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
