They also lived in the same turbulent times that inspired the feelings of Francisco de Goya, those sinister emissaries of fear and despair, whose realistic vision impacts on the paintings and sketches called his 'black painting': the Marquises of Osuna.
In fact, one of the most magical and enigmatic places in Madrid is none other than the so-called Jardín del Capricho, which, in response to the tastes of the nobility of the time for the Occult, they ordered to be designed on their lands of the also called Alameda de Osuna, located, for more detail, not far from the northwest highway that connects Madrid with Barcelona and France.
Filled, in its mysterious foliage, with mysterious objects and structures, each one more significant and esoteric than the last, this spectacular hourglass stands out, watched over by half a dozen charismatic sphinxes, whose imperturbable mystery continues to suggest, in the mind of the spectator, the veracity of that remarkable surrealist affirmation that insists that there are other worlds, even if they are in this one.
Vivieron, también, en los mismos tiempos turbulentos que inspiraron, en los sentimientos de Francisco de Goya, esos siniestros emisarios del miedo y de la desesperación, cuya realista visión, impacta en los cuadros y bocetos denominados como su ‘pintura negra’: los marqueses de Osuna.
De hecho, uno de los lugares más mágicos y enigmáticos de Madrid, no es otro que el denominado Jardín del Capricho, el cual, atendiendo a los gustos de la nobleza de la época por el Ocultismo, mandaron diseñar en sus terrenos de la también denominada Alameda de Osuna, situada, para más detalle, no lejos de autovía del noroeste que conecta Madrid con Barcelona y Francia.
Repleto, en sus misteriosas frondosidades, de objetos y estructuras misteriosas, a cual más significativa y esotérica, destaca, no obstante, esta espectacular clepsidra, vigilada por media docena de carismáticas esfinges, cuyo impertérrito misterio continúa sugiriendo, en la mente del espectador, la veracidad de esa notable afirmación surrealista que incide en insistir que hay otros mundos, aunque estén en este.

It looks really 'haunted' with it's white marble pillars and black burnished sculptures. I assume the sculptures represent malevolent and sinister forces. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.
It is a fascinating place, very magical and esoteric and most importantly, it is surrounded by amazing and wonderful vegetation. Greetings
