Boy Staring at an Apparition | Francisco Goya | 1825

Boy Staring at an Apparition (1824–1825) by Francisco Goya exemplifies the artist’s late meditations on mortality, fear, and the unseen. The work presents the faint profile of a young boy, his pale features illuminated against a void of shadow as he confronts an indistinct, spectral presence. Executed with vigorous, almost abstract brushwork and a somber palette, the composition resists clarity, evoking the instability of vision and the blurred threshold between reality and imagination. This enigmatic scene reflects Goya’s profound engagement with the psychological and existential anxieties that permeated his final years.
