Goya and 18th-century Spanish Painting
This guide goes far beyond the traditional understanding of that word, and is rather a manual of history and art, covering the century in which the genius of Goya was revealed to the world.
Goya’s Graphic Imagination
This book presents the first focused investigation of Francisco Goya's (1746–1828) graphic output. Spanning six decades, Goya’s works on paper reflect the transformation and turmoil of the Enlightenment, the Inquisition, and Spain's years of constitutional government. Two essays, a detailed chronology, and more than 100 featured artworks illuminate the remarkable breadth and power of Goya's drawings and prints, situating the artist within his historical moment. The selected pieces document the various phases and qualities of Goya's graphic work—from his early etchings after Velázquez through print series such as the Caprichos and The Disasters of War to his late lithographs, The Bulls of Bordeaux, and including albums of drawings that reveal the artist’s nightmares, dreams, and visions.

Lushly illustrated and authored by a distinguished Goya scholar, this catalogue is an essential guide to a treasure trove of the artist's works"--

„de mi invención“?
In der Arbeit werden Francisco de Goyas Werke untersucht, die in den ersten fünfzehn Jahren seines Dienstes am spanischen Königshof entstanden und dem Maler den Weg ebneten, an dessen Ende er das Amt eines Hofmalers mit einem festen Einkommen erlangte: Teppichkartons, Velázquez-Kopien in Form von Zeichnungen und Radierungen, Porträts von Mitgliedern der Hocharistokratie, der Staatsbank und des königlichen Hofes. Die Analysen ergeben, dass sich Goya in seinen Gemälden ‒ auf der Suche nach einem eigenen Stil und von zeitgenössischen kunsttheoretischen Debatten angeregt ‒ ständig mit Anton Raphael Mengs‘ europaweit gerühmtem klassizistischem Idealismus und Diego Velázquez‘ national-patriotisch gefördertem Realismus auseinandersetzt.
