El sueño de la razon produce monstruos. (The sleep of reason produces monsters.) (1796-1797) - Francisco de Goya - Canvas Print

El sueño de la razon produce monstruos (The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters) is a print created by Francisco de Goya in 1796-1797. The work is part of the series called "Los Caprichos" and it reflects the artist's skepticism towards the Enlightenment, which he believed had led to excessive rationalization and superstition. The print depicts a man sitting with his head in his hands, asleep and slumped over a table. On the table are several papers and books, as well as a model of a human body with wings attached to its shoulders. The wings symbolize reason being replaced by fantasy and imagination. In the background, there are bats flying around, representing the darker aspects of the human mind that emerge when reason is neglected. Overall, the painting serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked rationalization, and highlights the importance of maintaining balance between reason and imagination in order to avoid the creation of monsters.
