Painting Description
"Self-Portrait with Doctor Arrieta 2" is a notable painting by the renowned Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, created in 1820. This work is a poignant and personal depiction that captures a critical moment in Goya's life, reflecting both his artistic prowess and his profound gratitude towards his physician, Dr. Eugenio García Arrieta. The painting is a testament to Goya's struggle with a severe illness that nearly claimed his life, and it serves as an intimate narrative of his recovery.
In this self-portrait, Goya presents himself in a vulnerable state, being physically supported by Dr. Arrieta. The artist's pallor and weakened condition are vividly portrayed, emphasizing the gravity of his illness. Dr. Arrieta is depicted with a compassionate and attentive demeanor, administering medicine to the ailing Goya. The interplay of light and shadow in the painting enhances the dramatic intensity of the scene, highlighting the contrast between the frail artist and the robust, caring physician.
The background of the painting is dark and somber, which further accentuates the central figures and adds to the overall emotional impact. Goya's inscription on the canvas, which translates to "Goya, in gratitude to his friend Arrieta: for the skill and care with which he saved his life during his acute and dangerous illness, painted in 1820," provides a direct acknowledgment of Dr. Arrieta's crucial role in his recovery.
"Self-Portrait with Doctor Arrieta 2" is not only a significant work within Goya's oeuvre but also an important historical document that offers insight into the artist's personal life and the medical practices of the early 19th century. The painting is housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, where it continues to be studied and admired for its emotional depth and technical mastery.
