Goya. His life and art
Description
An introduction, not only to Goya's work, but to the critical period in Spanish history which he recorded. In a period largely bereft of major literary masterpieces, it is to Goya that we look to find out what Spain was like in the period spanning the decline of neoclassicism, the devastation of the Napoleonic Wars, and the rise of Romanticism and Impressionism.
