"Sad Forebodings of What is to Come" is an etching by Francisco Goya, created in 1810. The artwork depicts a lone figure, kneeling in a dark and foreboding setting. The figure's anguished expression and outstretched hand suggest a sense of despair and impending doom. Goya's use of dramatic chiaroscuro and expressive lines emphasizes the emotional weight of the scene, reflecting the turbulent times in which the artwork was created. It's a powerful example of Goya's "Disasters of War" series, a stark commentary on the horrors of the Napoleonic Wars.
