Esto es lo verdadero (This Is the Truth) is a 1815 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting depicts a man and a woman standing together, with the man holding a shovel in his right hand. The woman is wearing a long dress and has her hands clasped together in front of her. The background of the painting is dark and shadowy, with rays of light emanating from the top of the image. The man and woman are shown in a dramatic pose, with the man's face contorted in a mixture of anger and sadness. The woman's face is more serene, but her eyes are cast downward, suggesting a sense of shame or regret. The overall mood of the painting is one of tension and conflict. This painting is a work by Goya, Francisco, a prominent figure in the Romanticism movement.
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (; Spanish: ; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker.
