''Two Old Men Eating Soup'' (Spanish: ''Dos viejos comiendo sopa'') or ''The Witchy Brew'' (Spanish: ''Dos Brunjas'')〔Junquera, 84〕 one of the so-called Black Paintings created by Francisco Goya between 1819–23. By this time, Goya was in his mid-70s and deeply disillusioned. He painted the works on the interior walls of the house known as "The House of the Deaf Man" (''Quinta del Sordo''). They were not intended for public display. ''Two Old Men Eating Soup'' likely occupied a position above the main door to the house, between ''La Leocadia'' and ''Two Old Men''.〔Fernández, G. "(Goya: The Black Paintings )". theartwolf.com, August 2006. Retrieved 4 April 2010.〕 Like the other Black Paintings, it was transferred to canvas in 1874–78 under the supervision of Salvador Martínez Cubells, a curator at the Museo del Prado, Madrid. The owner, Baron Émile d'Erlanger, donated the canvases to the Spanish state in 1881, and they are now on display at the Prado.〔Hughes, 16–17〕 In the image, two elderly figures loom forward from a black background; although they are assumed to be men, their gender is not readily apparent. The mouth of the left figure is drawn into a grimace, possibly from lack of teeth. In stark contrast to this animated expression, the face of the other figure hardly seems alive at all. Its eyes are black hollows and the head in general bears the aspect of a skull. As in the rest of the Black Paintings, Goya's use of his medium displays an assurance that comes only from a lifetime of experience. Paint is handled freely and rapidly yet with great decisiveness. The palette knife is also used to apply paint in some areas. Blacks, ochres, earth tones and grays are the only colors used, as in the rest of the black paintings. ==Footnotes==
