One of the most remarkable artists of the past millenium, the Spanish artist Francisco Goya (1746–1828) continues to astonish us today and has been quoted by generations of painters, from Manet to Michael Armitage. Mark MacDonald, the curator of Goya’s Graphic Imagination, has selected just over 100 of his drawings and prints, providing the visitor with a compelling introduction to Goya’s nightmarish visions of the horrors of wars and unchallenged supersitition. As well as examples of the well-known Caprichos and Disasters of War, the exhibition includes some of his prints of works by Velázquez from the Spanish Royal Collection which had such a huge impact on the development of later European art (for more about this, listen and watch Prado curator Javier Barón’s lecture in our selection of podcasts). The broadly chronological presentation follow\ Goya's evolution and different phases as a graphic artist as well as his approaches to his subjects. Most of the works come from The Me’s collection—one of the most outstanding collections of Goya's drawings and prints outside Spain— but they are complemented by others from Boston, the Museo Nacional del Prado and the Biblioteca Nacional de España.
