Nearly missed it AGAIN! Happy #Saturnalia!

“Saturn Devouring His Son,” painted by Francisco Goya, c1820-1823. A giant, naked, disheveled god Saturn, with unkempt grey beard and long hair, clutches with both hands a smaller, also naked, but still adult-proportioned corpse, its head and right arm bitten off. He feeds the corpse’s left arm into his open maw, his bulging eyes staring directly at the viewer. Caption: “Happy Saturnalia—May all your children be delicious.”
