The Witches' Kitchen[1] (Spanish: La cocina de las brujas or Berganza y Cañizares) is a painting by the Spanish artist Francisco Goya, located in a private collection in Mexico. It is part of a series of six cabinet paintings, each measuring approximately 43 × 30 cm, with the theme of witchcraft. The paintings do not together form a single narrative and do not share a common meaning, so it is appropriate to interpret each one individually. The entire series was owned by the Dukes of Osuna and adorned their summer residence, Alameda de Osuna. In addition to The Witches' Kitchen, the series includes: Witches' Sabbath, Witches' Flight, The Incantation, The Bewitched Man, and Don Juan and the Commendatore. Four of the paintings are in various public collections, one in a private collection, and the last is considered lost.
