Judith and Holofernes is the name given to one of the 14 Black Paintings painted by Francisco de Goya between 1819 and 1823. By this time Goya was in his mid 70s and deeply disillusioned. In mental and physical despair he painted the private works on the interior walls of his home—applying oils directly on plaster—known as the Quinta del Sordo (The House of the Deaf Man) which he had purchased in 1819.
