Man Mocked by Two Women
''Man Mocked by Two Women'' or ''Women Laughing'' or (Spanish: ''Dos Mujeres y un hombre'') or ''The Ministration''〔Gowing, Lawrence. Review: "Goya's 'Black' Paintings. Truth and Reason in Light and Liberty" by Priscilla E. Muller. ''The Burlington Magazine'', vol. 128, no. 1000, July 1986. 506-508〕 (Spanish: ''Dos Mujeres Y Un Hombre'') are names given to a painting likely completed between 1820–1823〔Licht, 159〕 by the Spanish artist Francisco Goya.
It is one of Goya's 14 "Black Paintings", a series created in despair near the end of his life, and is oppressively dark in both mood and colour. It shows two women with maniacal smiles seemingly laughing at a simple-minded man masturbating at the right hand of the picture. Despite their jeers, the woman to the left is also likely masturbating, which — in the absence of any written or oral comment from Goya on any work on the series — art critics and historians believe lends to the image's futile and sterile intent.
==Background==
At the age of 75, living alone and in mental and physical despair, he completed the work as one of his 14 ''Black Paintings'', his final major series, which were executed in oil directly onto the plaster walls of the house he was living in outside Madrid. Goya did not intend for any of these paintings to be seen by others; they were executed during an intense period of physical, mental and political disillusionment, and he never spoke or wrote about them.〔 Although today they are considered amongst the most important works of his output, it was not until some 50 years after his death, around 1874, that they were taken down and transferred to a canvas support.
