In 1775, He became court painter and did many portraits of tHe nobility or royal families of Spain. In 1793 He became deaf because of an illness. It influenced His art because He became more pessimistic and ampHasised on tHe defects of tHe society and started using dark colors such as in tHe Black Paintings series. Goya also painted during wars sucH as tHe War of Independence and Has a series called The Disasters of War. He identified witH tHe liberal ideas of tHe FrencH Revolution and went into exile in France after tHe Liberal Triennium, wHere He died. A Pilgrimage to San Isidro (1819) one of tHe Black Paintings. The Third of May (1808) one of The Disasters of Wars.

Ex: Perros y Útiles de Caza. • Frescos: it is a technique in wHich paint is mixed witH water. Paintings are painted directly on walls and not on in canvas. Ex: Real Ermita de San Antonio de la Florida. • Oil painting: it was a technique used for portraits and scenes. It consisted of using oils wHen painting. It kept tHe painting wet so colours could be mixed better. Ex: La Maja Vestida. • Prints: it was based on scratching a piece of a Hard material and tHen tHe ink would go into tHe marks of tHe scratching and tHen it is put over a paper and tHe painting is done.

KINGS Goya was tHe court painter of CHarles III and CHarles IV. La Familia de Carlos IV THis is a portait of CHarles III but it was not painted by Goya. GOYA THE PRECURSOR OF CONTEMPORARY ART IN SPAIN He is considered tHe percursor of Contemporary Art in Spain because of His expressive and original imagery. Also because He Had His own style. LA ERMITA DE SAN ANTONIO DE LA FLORIDA I Have cHosen La Ermita de San Antonio de la Florida. It belongs to tHe Contemporary Art because it is from 1800. I chose tHis one because tHe ermita was tHe king's property and I tHink tHat it is shocking tHat now people can visit tHis place and years ago it was of tHe king. Also because I like frescos and if you go tHere you will see tHe frescos painted by Goya in tHe same place He Had been painting tHem and it is awesome. THere you can see His frescos tHat represented parts of San Antonio de Padua's life but tHey are more original because Goya introduced people from otHer social groups..

  • The Third of May 1808, Francisco Goya, Oil on Canvas 1814
    Part C Term 1 Assessment With three artists from different countries and backgrounds it is interesting that they have all, in some of their works, decided to work with the same concept. The one element that unites the works of Spaniard Francisco Goya, German John Heartfield and Hungarian Robert Capa is that, at least at some point in their career, they have all chosen to depict the universal issue of war. Goya extensively employed colour and unique paint application techniques to explore the emotional side of war and conflict during the invasion of Spain by France, while Heartfield used the composite medium of photomontage to protest against the suffering of desperate people under the Nazi reign. At a similar time to Heartfield, and at times in the same countries as both Goya and Heartfield, Capa photographed at least five different wars and captured mainly action photos aimed at portraying the violence of armed conflict. All three artists incorporate the human figure as part of their subject matter, but in my opinion John Heartfield and Francisco Goya are more persuasive in communicating their intentions than Robert Capa. Francisco Goya was born in Spain in 1746 and practiced artmaking almost to the end of his life in 1828. He was the official court painter to Charles IV and the director of the Spanish Royal Academy, and with these connections he became a favourite of the wealthy who employed him to paint their portraits. Goya was part of the Romanticism movement and mainly worked with the media of paint; however he was prolific in the production of both paintings and prints (zinc plate and etching among others.) Francisco had a free, painterly style and he often used his fingers in the place of a brush as he painted.

ISBN: 978 1 78067 109 3 Series editor: Catherine Ingram Printed in China LAURENCE KING PUBLISHING Francisco de Goya y Lucientes was the first artist deliberately to pursue creating works of art for their own sake. Modern art begins with Goya. Straddling the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, he lived in a time of incredible cultural and social dynamism, when the old concepts of social hierarchy were being shaken by the new concept of equality for all. In this striking self-portait, Goya is in his early fifties and at the height of his career. The unsentimental documenation of his own face and character recalls Rembrandt’s own images of himself, and Goya acknowledged the seventeenth century Dutch master as an important influence. Other influences he cited were the Spanish master Velázquez and Nature. Within a decade of this image, Goya would see his comfortable, progressive world turned upside down and ripped apart by Napoleon’s armies who supposedly represented the new concept of equality.

Director of Thesis Master's Committee: 3 GOYA AND THE INTERNATIONAL ART MOVEMENTS OFIDSTIME Beverly L. McNutt, M.A. Morehead State University, 1991 Director of Thesis: Ryan A. Howard Francisco de Paula Jose Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828) was one of the greatest artists ever produced by Spain. Living a long and productive life, Goya was able to participate in and contribute to many contemporary and future international art movements, while remaining a traditional Spanish artist. If this seems to be a contradictory statement, all one has to do is examine his life and work to discover a man capable of astonishing transformations. He was a chameleon, changing his colors against the political and artistic landscape of his world. However, he never did this in an obsequious way; he was just not content with the status quo and was always open to new ideas. His mature art is always original and daring, yet could contain aspects of the prevalent style. 4 As with any brilliant, passionate artist, it is sometimes difficult to separate myth from reality about his life in the 1 700s and early 1800s.

Its origin can be traced by to Immanuel Kant who, in his Critique of Judgment of 1790, broke with traditional aesthetics by analyzing the previously unified notions of the good, the tree and the beautiful as discrete categories. Appreciation of beauty is, he argued, subjective and disinterested – unaffected by an object’s purpose. Gustave Courbet. The Stone Breakers, 1849 , oil on canvas (destroyed) Realism was an artistic movement that began in France in the 1850s, after the 1848 Revolution. Realists rejected Romanticism, which had dominated French literature and art since the late 18th century. Realism revolted against the exotic subject matter and exaggerated emotionalism and drama of the Romantic movement. Instead it sought to portray real and typical contemporary people and situations with truth and accuracy, and not avoiding unpleasant or sordid aspects of life. Realist works depicted people of all classes in situations that arise in ordinary life, and often reflected the changes wrought by the Industrial Revolution.

  • Francisco De Goya, (1746-1828) '3Rd May 1808' 1814 Key Facts: Artist
    Francisco de Goya, (1746-1828) ‘3rd May 1808’ 1814 Key facts: Artist: Goya Date: 1814 Medium: oil on canvas Dimensions: 266 x 345 cm Location: Prado Museum, Madrid, Spain 1. ART HISTORICAL TERMS AND CONCEPTS Subject matter: On 2nd May 1808 Napoleon’s lieutenant-general, Murat, marched on Madrid with a contingent of special mercenary forces, the mamelukes of North Africa. Because the leaders had fled and things were left in disarray there was no-one to give orders to the Spanish army. The people rose up against the invaders. Goya was living in the Puerta del Sol at that time, close to where the uprising took place, so he may well have witnessed it. In his painting of the events of 2nd May Goya celebrates the bravery of his countrymen, but focuses on the violence. From the Royal Palace General Murat, Napoleon’s brother-in-law, ordered the detention and execution of suspected participants in the uprising. The shootings went on all night long. This is the event depicted in 3rd May 1808. Composition: Goya shows the firing squad taking aim with their rifles. Seen from the back, they resemble a machine, a uniform row of faceless executioners in a diagonal line with their guns a strong horizontal drawing attention to the focal point of the man in the white shirt. On the ground in front of them is a pile of blood-stained bodies. Each of the victims, clearly individualised, stumbles up the slope, facing an untimely death, alone. Their heads are bowed; some cover their faces; one shows intense fear in his eyes.
