- Goya: Painter of Terror and Splendour

Francisco Goya was privileged to witness the entire gamut of daily life in Spain at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries: the celebrations, traditions, hopes--and the evils, from decadence at court to the horrors of war. In Goya's art, kings and bullfighters, princesses and courtesans, murderers and victims all come alive.
