4. I love this painting.

The Third of May 1808- Goya
I can never quite pinpoint what I love about it. I never really realized until now how it might be somehow construed that I'm sadistic and I love to see blood and gore. I love to see blood and gore, but I don't think I'm sadistic.
Last year on a final, I stated that I would love to hang this painting in my dining room. I just love it. The style, the subject, the colors. I do love Goya, but this is by far my favorite. I think I kind of think it's tragic and yet powerful. Does anyone agree, or am I alone on this one?
