The Second of May 1808
''The Second of May 1808'', also known as ''The Charge of the Mamelukes'' (in Spanish: ''El 2 de mayo de 1808 en Madrid'', or ''La lucha con los mamelucos'' or ''La carga de los mamelucos''〔 (Online Gallery ) Prado Museum. Retrieved 7 June 2013.〕), is a painting by the Spanish painter Francisco Goya. It is a companion to the painting ''The Third of May 1808'' and is set in the Calle de Alcalá near Puerta del Sol, Madrid, during the Dos de Mayo Uprising. It depicts one of the many people's rebellions against the French occupation of Spain that sparked the Peninsular War.
Both paintings were completed in a two-month time frame in 1814. Today they are displayed in Madrid's Museo del Prado.
==Background==
Goya witnessed first-hand the French occupation of Spain in 1808, when Napoleon used the pretext of reinforcing his army in Portugal to seize the Spanish throne, leaving his brother Joseph in power. Attempts to remove members of the Spanish royal family from Madrid provoked a widespread rebellion. This popular uprising occurred between the second and third of May 1808, when suppressed by forces under Maréchal Joachim Murat.
