A gloomy palace can be seen at back, which also sees a group of spectators cringe at its center. A monk and a man clad in a white shirt with his arms outstretched are among those at left, illuminated by an enormous lantern sitting on the ground in front of men whose faces are hidden. Accompanying its artist's other work about the Charge of the Mamelukes, this painting is believed to be the result of the artist's witnessing of shootings on Príncipe Pío before depicting the death of citizens, perhaps at the hands of Napoleonic troops. Subtitled "The Execution of the Defenders of Madrid," this is, FTP, which painting by Francisco Goya?
