"Fusilamiento" is a painting by Esteban Frances, a Spanish artist born in 1913. The painting features a dramatic scene of a firing squad executing a group of people against a night sky. A large white dove with a glowing halo, symbolizing peace, descends from above, juxtaposed with the bloody violence below. The looming red moon in the upper right corner adds to the dramatic tension, suggesting a cosmic dimension to the tragedy. Frances's work often explored themes of war, violence, and the search for peace, making "Fusilamiento" a powerful commentary on the human condition.
