"Kamp fra en hestevogn trukket af to æsler" (Fight from a Horse-Drawn Carriage Pulled by Two Donkeys) is an etching by Francisco Goya, created between 1815 and 1816. This print is a part of Goya's iconic series "The Disasters of War," which documents the horrors of the Peninsular War, a conflict between Spain and France. This particular print depicts a scene of chaos and violence, as a bull attacks a carriage pulled by donkeys, with people both inside and outside the carriage struggling for survival. Goya’s masterful use of line and detail creates a powerful and evocative image, highlighting the brutality and savagery of war. The etching serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of war on individuals and society.
