1799
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
They've Already Got a Seat, Plate 26 is a 1799 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows three people in a dim room. A woman in a fancy dress stands holding a chair, while a man in a robe leans against a bed. Another person sits on the bed, half-covered by a blanket. The lighting is soft, and the scene looks like it’s happening at night. The title, *They’ve Already Got a Seat*, hints at a story—maybe about waiting or missing out. The artist used simple lines and shading to show the mood, not just the details. Check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create drama in art.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
