1799
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Which of Them is the More Overcome?, Plate 27 is a 1799 by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows two people standing close together. The woman on the left wears a long dress and holds a fan. The man on the right stands stiffly, gripping her arm. Their faces are blurred, and the background looks dark and plain, with a small dog curled up on the ground. The title below asks, *"Who is more overcome?"*—hinting at the tension between them. The loose, sketchy lines make the scene feel raw and emotional. Next, check out Romanticism to see how this fits into the bigger art movement.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
