"O fusilamento do 3 de maio de 1808" de GOYA presenta os horrores da guerra. Considerado como unha das primeiras obras da Arte Moderna, tivo unha grande influencia en outros artistas, como EDOUARD MANET, na súa serie de pinturas de "A execución do Emperador Maximiliano I" (1868-69), ou PABLO PICASSO, "Masacre en Corea" (1951), interpretado como unha denuncia da intervención americana na guerra de Corea, e "Guernica" (1937) que representa o sofrimento e a destrucción. Convertido no símbolo universal da conciencia humana contra o sofrimento e a devastación da guerra

GOYA, "The Third of May 1808, Execution of the Defenders of Madrid" presents the horrors of war. It is thus considered one of the first pieces of modern art. This painting has influenced a number of other artists, who have directly referenced the style and setting of the painting, including EDOUARD MANET, with the series of paintings of "The Execution of Emperor Maximilian" (1868–69), depicting the execution by firing squad of Emperor Maximilian I; and PABLO PICASSO, "Massacre in Korea", a expressionistic painting completed in 1951, which is seen as a criticism of American intervention in the Korean War, and "Guernica", completed in 1937, a large mural that shows the suffering of people, animals, and buildings wrenched by violence and chaos. It has become a universal and powerful symbol warning humanity against the suffering and devastation of war.
