{"product_id":"accuse-the-time-francisco-goya","title":"Accuse the Time - Francisco Goya","description":"\u003cp\u003eA haunting ink wash drawing by Francisco Goya, depicting an elderly figure in a moment of quiet struggle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work belongs to the series known as the Black Border drawings, produced by Francisco Goya during his final years in Madrid. The image depicts a solitary, elderly figure seated on the ground, captured in a moment of physical or psychological distress. The figure is rendered with economy, using ink wash to define the heavy folds of clothing and the slumped posture of the body. The surrounding space is left largely empty, which directs the viewer's focus entirely to the subject's expression and posture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGoya uses the brush to create tonal variations that suggest both volume and shadow, despite the lack of a defined background. The title, inscribed at the bottom, translates to 'Accuse the Time', a theme that recurs in Goya's late works as he contemplated mortality, decay, and the passage of years. The figure appears to be struggling against an unseen force, or perhaps simply succumbing to the weight of age. The composition is stark, reflecting the artist's move toward a more personal and experimental style during his time at the Quinta del Sordo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike his earlier court commissions, these drawings were not intended for public display. They represent a private exploration of human suffering and the absurdities of life. The technique is direct, prioritising the emotional weight of the gesture over anatomical precision. The monochromatic palette reinforces the somber mood of the piece. This print captures the original's delicate ink washes and the specific character of Goya's late-period mark-making, providing a clear view of the artist's hand in his final creative phase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/landschap-met-een-ruine-en-tablet-alexander-ver-huell\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eLandschap met een ruïne en tablet by Alexander Ver Huell\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/funeral-scene-at-the-beach-caspar-david-friedrich\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFuneral scene at the beach by Caspar David Friedrich\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/collections\/francisco-goya\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFrancisco Goya prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Francisco Goya","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474748703055,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474769576271,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59474769609039,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474769641807,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474769674575,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474769707343,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474769740111,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474769772879,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474769805647,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59474769838415,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59474769871183,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59474769903951,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Accuse-the-Time_Poster_CompositorV1_1794403911502.jpg?v=1794443054","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/fr\/products\/accuse-the-time-francisco-goya","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
