Saturn Devouring His Son is a painting by Spanish artist Francisco Goya. It is traditionally considered a depiction of the Greek myth of the Titan Cronus, whom the Romans called Saturn, eating one of his children out of fear of a prophecy by Gaea that one of his children would overthrow him.
The work is one of the 14 so-called Black Paintings that Goya painted directly on the walls of his house sometime between 1820 and 1823. It was transferred to canvas after Goya's death and is now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid.
This was posted about a year ago but that post's image is lost, it seems.
It's amazing to think Goya painted this on his dining room wall.
I find it interesting he didn't actually title any of these paintings and as far as I know, no explanation was given either. Perhaps he was thinking of the myth, but for all we know he wanted it to be titled ''Indigestion''. I think of it more as ''black painting 4'' or some other description without imposed meaning.
Painting in the kitchen probably inspired his favourite work of mine.
The CEO of that company supports Trump and spreads the election lies, FWIW.
He has disappointed us all. But with the absurd amounts of money and support Trump STILL gets with the owner class there's no surprises.
