FRANCISCO GOYA 2/4 – Witches appear in several of his works, reflecting the fascination with supernatural themes and the violence, how such minds inflict on the world. His “Witches’ Sabbath” (part of a serie of six paintings related to witchcraft acquired by the Duke and Duchess of Osuna) is oil on canvas in the Museo Lázaro Galdiano in Madrid. http://meetingbenches.com/2017/04/bewitched-landscapes-world/
FRANCISCO GOYA 3/4 – Throughout his long career he was a commentator and chronicler of his era. In 1786, he became a court painter of the Spanish Crown. He began to establish his reputation as a portrait artist, winning commissions in royal circles. Works such as “The Duke and Duchess of Osuna and their Children”, illustrate his eye for detail, but he also captured the tiniest elements of their faces and clothes. Without pretense to allegorical meaning, his “Maja Desnuda” was the first profane life-size female nude in Western art. In 1793, he suffered an undiagnosed illness, which left him completely deaf and his work became darker and pessimistic.
