Description

The painting "Rejoice, Carnival, for Tomorrow Thou Wilt Be Ashes [Carnival Folly]" (Alegrias Antruejo, que Mañana Seras Ceniza [Disparate de Carnabal]) was created by Francisco de Goya around 1813-1820. The painting is part of his "Black Paintings" series, which he created during the last years of his life in a house outside Madrid. It is an example of the artist's dark and pessimistic style, depicting the theme of human folly and transience. The work features a group of carefree revelers at a carnival celebration, surrounded by chaos and decay. In the background, there are burning buildings, possibly symbolizing the inevitability of destruction and the fleeting nature of joy. The figures in the foreground are dressed in colorful, festive attire, but their expressions convey a sense of confusion and anxiety. The title of the painting is a quote from a Spanish proverb that translates to "Rejoice, carnival, for tomorrow you will be ashes." This saying serves as a reminder of the transience of human happiness and the inevitability of suffering. The composition and dark palette of the work reflect this message, making it one of Goya's most haunting and thought-provoking pieces.
