El 3 de Mayo en Madrid is a photograph taken during the filming of Goya: 3 de mayo, a short documentary by the acclaimed filmmaker Carlos Saura, who recently left us after being awarded the Goya prize for his film career. Both the documentary and the photography by Jorge Fuembuena are based on Francisco de Goya's famous painting The Firing Squad of May 3rd, one of the most emblematic paintings in the history of art in Spain. The work represents the first hours of May 3, 1808, after the uprising of the people of Madrid against the Napoleonic forces, in which a group of French soldiers execute the Spanish prisoners. The painting is one of the major references for the representation of the horrors of war, a recurring theme in Goya's work and of special relevance in the current historical context. Jorge Fuembuena's work is a tribute to the two masters, the painter Goya and the filmmaker Saura, making his photography, more than ever, a bridge between pictorial representation and cinema.
