Quien mas rendido? (Which of Them Is the More Overcome?) is a 1799 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a woman and a man in a dramatic pose. The woman, wearing a long dress, stands with her head tilted back, while the man, dressed in a dark jacket and pants, leans forward, his right hand grasping the woman's left arm. A small dog lies on the ground in front of them. In the background, several figures are visible, although their faces are not clearly defined. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of tension and drama, with the woman's pose suggesting a sense of surrender or defeat. The use of etching, drypoint, and aquatint techniques creates a rich, textured quality in the image, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures.
