"Truth Has Died" is an etching from Francisco de Goya's famous series "The Disasters of War," created in 1814. This etching depicts a dead woman lying at the center, surrounded by figures that seem to be mocking or ignoring her. The scene is filled with a sense of despair and violence. Goya’s series was created in response to the brutality of the Peninsular War, and this etching is a powerful indictment of the horrors of war and the indifference of those in power.
