Based on Francisco Goya's 'Black Paintings' created between 1819 and 1823, 'Saturn Devouring His Son' depicts the Greek myth of Cronus consuming his offspring to prevent being overthrown. Originally painted directly onto the walls of Goya's home, the image gained internet notoriety for its grotesque, visceral intensity. In meme culture, it serves as a powerful visual metaphor for self-destructive tendencies, corporate cannibalism, or simply an overwhelming primal urge. Whether used to joke about a late-night snack or the crushing weight of work deadlines, the template remains one of the most recognizable intersections of classical fine art and raw digital humor.
