Between the opening of the French Revolution in 1789 and the end of
the Napoleonic Wars in 1815, Spanish artist Francisco Goya painted
what he saw around him, everything from peasants to priests, majas
to monarchs, courtesans to country folk. Goya's Spain was a nation
struggling to enter the modern world, even as it tolerated inept
kings, scheming queens, and militaristic prime ministers. In time,
revolutionary ideas and a spirit of liberalism spread across the
Spanish landscape, providing Goya with fresh subjects and a new
approach to art, embodied in this same spirit - Romanticism. But
Goya also had a darker side, one that would forever haunt him, not
only during his lifetime, but also in the artistic legacy he left
behind. In ""Francisco Goya"", learn about this early 19th-century
artist who painted against the backdrop of European conflict.
