Dibersion de España (Spanish Entertainment) is a 1825 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a chaotic scene with bulls and people tangled together. The bulls are mid-stride, some running, others tangled in cloth held by a group of people. The crowd looks scattered, with some reaching out to grab the animals while others watch. Trees and rocks fill the background, making the scene feel wild and messy. The title at the bottom, *Dibersion de España*, hints this might be about a Spanish tradition—possibly a bull-related event. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show movement and chaos. Next, look up lithography to see how this print was made.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
