About the piece
Painted between 1812 and 1819, 'The Burial of the Sardine' is a masterful example of Francisco Goya’s expressive later style. The scene captures a frantic carnival crowd in Madrid dancing around a grotesque banner, showcasing Goya's ability to blend vibrant energy with an underlying sense of mystery. The high contrast between the luminous white dresses of the central dancers and the shadowed, masked revelers creates a dramatic focal point that commands the viewer’s attention.
