Los Desastres de la guerra: colección de ochenta láminas inventadas y grabadas al agua fuerte

A vivid series of eighty powerful etchings brings the brutal reality of conflict to life, each image paired with terse, haunting captions that echo the artist’s own dread and compassion. The plates capture fleeting moments—from shattered villages and wounded civilians to the quiet acts of courage shown by women and the desperate scramble of refugees fleeing burning towns. Rendered in stark black‑and‑white lines, the work confronts listeners with the raw, unvarnished aftermath of war, inviting reflection on its human cost.

Beyond the stark visuals, the collection offers a glimpse into the mind of its creator, a renowned painter who turned his workshop into a chronicler of suffering in his later years. Brief biographical notes frame the series, revealing how a lifetime of court portraiture gave way to a relentless documentation of misery. Listeners will find themselves drawn into an intimate, unsettling portrait of an era where art becomes a solemn testimony to what humanity endures when conflict erupts.
