EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a powerful and poignant moment in the artwork "Saint Francois (Francis) Borgia au chevet d'un impenitent mourant" by Francisco de Goya y Lucientes. Created in 1788 as a sketch for the commissioned painting of the same title, this drawing showcases Goya's exceptional talent as a draughtsman. In this scene, Saint Francis Borgia, a Jesuit priest known for his piety and devotion to God, is depicted at the bedside of an unrepentant dying man. The intensity of their encounter is palpable as Saint Francis leans in close to offer spiritual guidance and solace during the man's final moments. Goya's masterful use of black and white adds depth and emotion to the composition. The contrast between light and shadow enhances the somber atmosphere surrounding death, emphasizing both Saint Francis' compassionate presence and the imminent passing of life. This artwork explores themes of faith, redemption, and mortality. It serves as a reminder that even those who have led sinful lives can find forgiveness through repentance before death. Through his skillful brushwork, Goya invites viewers to reflect on their own spirituality while contemplating life's inevitable end. Housed in Musee du Prado in Madrid, this piece continues to captivate audiences with its profound portrayal of human vulnerability and divine grace.
