The Dark Romanticism of Goya's 'Witches' Sabbath'


Francisco de Goya's 'Witches' Sabbath' is a prime example of the Dark Romanticism literary sub-genre, which reflects popular fascination with the irrational, the demonic, and the grotesque. This movement has shadowed the euphoric Romantic movement ever since its 18th-century beginnings.


The History of 'Witches' Sabbath'


'Witches' Sabbath' was originally part of Goya's 'Black Paintings' series, which he painted directly onto the walls of his house between 1819 and 1823. The painting was later transferred to canvas and now resides in the Museo del Prado in Madrid.
