By 1808, Spain had had just about enough of French Imperialism and Napoleon‘s occupation armies, and there was a bloody rebellion in Madrid that lasted for days (and led to The Peninsula War).
Francisco Goya was commissioned for paintings to commemorate the rebellion of Dos de Mayo a few years later in 1814.
Oh, and BTW, General Grouchy was a real dickhead.

“If they think this is bad, they should see what vegetables look like before they’re harvested. Covered in DIRT. EW!”
“I thought these were candles.”
“I’m frankly impressed that the chicken noodle isn’t 90% broth.”
“Not gonna lie, my gut reaction is they all look delicious. Am I uncultured swine?”
