The Horrors of War: This Is Worse is a 1815 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This image depicts a man with a long beard and unkempt hair, wearing only a loincloth. He stands on a tree stump, his right leg raised as if he's about to step forward. In the background, two men lie on the ground, one of whom appears to be dead. The scene is set against a backdrop of trees and rocks. The man's facial expression is one of anguish, and his body language conveys a sense of struggle. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of chaos and turmoil. For more works that explore the human experience through dramatic and expressive imagery, explore the Romanticism movement.
