We cannot determine the reason for the attack, but the blankly determined face of the aggressorwho roughly evokes Death carrying a scythemight signal retribution. The drawing manifests Goya’s unique ability to suggest sequence by indirectly condensing time. While omitting the culminating moment of the blade’s impact, he alludes to it: the logs parallel to the man’s body evoke the act of chopping, and the cloud of dust raised by the woman’s abrupt movement conjures the effect of blood spurting..
