The Master
Francisco de Goya
The bridge to the modern — from royal splendour to the black visions of war. Goya saw humanity's darkness and refused to look away.
“He stands as the great bridge from the Old Masters to the modern age — the first artist to make private terror and political outrage his subject. Manet, the Impressionists and the whole current of modern painting flow…”
The Life
Born in the Aragonese village of Fuendetodos, Francisco de Goya rose to become First Court Painter to the Spanish crown, portraying Charles IV and his family with unsettling candour. A grave illness in 1793 left him deaf, and his art turned inward and darker; the horrors of the Peninsular War against Napoleon's armies scarred him further. In his final years he covered the walls of his house with the nightmarish Black Paintings, then withdrew into self-exile in Bordeaux, where he died.
The Hand
Goya's brushwork grew ever freer and more urgent — loose, alla prima strokes, dramatic contrasts of light and shadow, and a sombre, bruising palette. A master etcher, his print series Los Caprichos and The Disasters of War carry the same unflinching force as his painted visions.
The Legacy
He stands as the great bridge from the Old Masters to the modern age — the first artist to make private terror and political outrage his subject. Manet, the Impressionists and the whole current of modern painting flow from his example.
The Market
A revered Old Master whose major works hang in the Prado and the world's great museums; his paintings rarely come to market, and when they do they are received as treasures of European civilisation.
