"He gets something out of it" is plate 40 from Francisco Goya's series *The Disasters of War*. The etching depicts a brutal scene of a dead soldier being stripped by a dog, highlighting the senselessness and cruelty of war. Goya's *The Disasters of War* is a series of 82 prints that depict the horrors of the Peninsular War, a conflict fought between Spain and France from 1808 to 1814. The series was not published until 1863, after Goya's death.
