Me. Photoshop of "Saturn devouring his son", by Francisco de Goya.

I made it in 2022 for Twitter. After that I abandoned my account. With the recent "X" news, I thought it will be fine to use it again after correcting the colours and adding a few filters, because the original was very dark and saturated.
