GOYA - A DOCUMENTARY

Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (born March 30, 1746, Fuendetodos, Spain - died April 16, 1828, Bordeaux, France), was a Spanish painter and print-maker, and the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Goya, who came to artistic maturity during the age of Enlightenment, is often referred to as both the last of the Old Masters and the first of the Moderns. Goya was a commentator and chronicler of his era, reflecting in engravings, paintings and drawings contemporary historical upheavals. He was also one of the great portraitists of his time.
