"Truth Rescued by Time, Witnessed by History" is an oil on canvas painting created in 1814 by Francisco de Goya. The painting depicts three figures: Truth, Time, and History. Truth, a woman in white, is holding a book and stands in front of Time, a winged figure who holds a scythe and hourglass. History, a woman writing in a book, sits at Time's feet. This painting is a powerful example of Goya's later works which explored themes of truth, justice, and history. The painting is now located at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden.
