Comments
This collection dedicated to the great artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828) is the third issue of the series called "Spanish Painters", with which we want to pay homage to the most outstanding Spanish creators throughout History.Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His paintings, drawings, and engravings reflected contemporary historical upheavals and influenced important 19th- and 20th-century painters. Goya is often referred to as the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns.
