3. Francisco de Goya(1746-1828) • Francisco José de Goya was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker regarded both as the last of the Old Masters and as the first of the moderns. • Goya was a court painter to the Spanish Crown. The imaginative element in his art, as well as his bold handling of paint, was influential in the work of later artists, like ÉdouardManet and Pablo Picasso.

4. Painting of Goya by another painter, Vicente López (circa 1826)

5. Goya was famous for painting portraits – especially of royalty. • Goya, through his works, was both a commentator on and chronicler of his era. • Turn to your shoulder partner and answer this question: Why do you think people paid him money for painting their portrait? • The following is a portrait of Carlos IV (Charles IV) who was king of Spain from 1788 – 1808.

7. His portraits are notable for their lack of flattery. In the case of Charles IV of Spain and His Family, some Modern interpreters feel that this portrait (next slide) is a satire; it is thought to reveal the corruption present under Carlos IV. • Turn to your shoulder partner and try to guess what is meant by “satire”? • Satire: a work that holds up human vices and follies to ridicule or scorn. • Under his reign, his wife Louisa was thought to have had the real power, which is why she is placed at the center of the group portrait. From the back left of the painting you can see the artist himself looking out at the viewer.

9. In his painting, “El tres de mayo 1808” Goya sought to commemorate Spanish resistance to Napoleon's armies during the occupation of 1808. • The painting's content, presentation, and emotional force secure its status as a groundbreaking. Although it draws on many sources from both high and popular art, The Third of May 1808 marks a clear break from convention. • According to the art historian Kenneth Clark, The Third of May 1808 is "the first great picture which can be called revolutionary in every sense of the word, in style, in subject, and in intention".

11. Goya was a soulful and intense artist that created art in many mediums and despite his own physical and mental health issues, continued painting up until his death in 1828. • Some of his later works were considered very dark and may have reflected his own mental state. Some of his later paintings, like, “Los disastres de la guerra” are rather dark. • Turn to your shoulder partner and before seeing it, what do you think “Los disastres de la guerra” means? If you do know, don’t tell anyone around you! 
