GOYA :)


I study History and theory of Arts and for that reason i could know about this artist. The person that i admired was Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes and he was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker regarded both as the "last of the Old Masters and as the first of the moderns". I admire Goya because he was a very good painter. And because his paintings were so dramatic and politic. I love his way of depicting and transforming his imagination and speech.


Goya was a court painter to the Spanish Crown. He includes in his painting a subversive and imaginative element in his art, as well as his bold handling of paint, provided a model of the next generations of artists, specially Manet and Picasso.

The Goya's work was so varied. The most famous paintings of Goya was the
The Nude Maja and The Clothed Maja. They depict the same woman in the same pose, but one naked and the other dressed.

Well i love arts and for that reason i love Goya, i think that is a wonderfull artist and a real inspiration for the later generations of painters. I think that he was a very commit artist and this is so important to me, and for the art in general, we can learn a lot of his work.

:D
