  • Francisco Goya
    Francisco Goya Biography Returning to Spain in 1772, Goya would become Aragonʼs most famous painter as a result of several fresco projects. He worked in the Cathedral of our Lady of El Pilar in Zaragosa, in a chapel in the palace of the Count of Sobradiel, and completed a series of large frescos for the charterhouse of Aula Dei, near Zaragosa. By 1774, Goya had one of the best artistic jobs in Spain, with steady work, good pay, and a direct connection to the royal court in Madrid. He was hired by his brother-in-law, Francisco Bayeu, to produce tapestries for the royal palaces. Goyaʼs job was to create paintings (called cartoons) which the weavers could copy in silk and wool. His tapestry cartoons were highly praised for their candid views of every day Spanish life, and he painted more than 60 in 16 years. During this time Goya created etchings of some of the works by Velázquez found in the kingʼs art Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes was an collection. As he copied Velázquezʼs works, he innovative Spanish painter and etcher, and one of was influenced by the way Velázquez composed the triumvirate—including El Greco and Diego his pictures, and by his way of capturing the Velázquez—of great Spanish masters. He was emotions and personality of his subjects. Goya born in the small Aragonese town of Fuendetodos began to attract a steady clientele with his talent (near Saragossa) on March 30, 1746. His father as a draftsman, printmaker and painter. was a painter and a gilder of altarpieces, and his mother was descended from a family of minor Goyaʼs career steadily advanced during this time.

El aquelarre (The Witches' Sabbath) 1797-98, Madrid: Lázaro Galdiano Museum.1 154 INTI N° 40-41 In a scene of central importance in Martin-Santos's Tiempo de silencio, Goya's painting, El aquelarre (the Witches' Sabbath), provokes a negative assessment of Ortega y Gasset. It is my contention that the pictorial narrative is not merely a prop for the main scene of conflict: it is a full-fledged, though silent, dramatis personae, affecting both the dialogue and dialectic of the polemic. The painting functions at two levels. At the primary level of narration, it is literally and quite explicitly an interext, the intermediary through which Martín-Santos lays bare the weakness of the philosopher; at the secondary level of narration, the painting in turn ironically exposes a concealed subtext in Martin-Santos's own fiction.

  • Seleccion Rosario Weiss.Pdf
    Catálogo razonado Introducción En recuerdo de Carmen Díez y Manuel Sánchez, y para Fernando Castanedo n su Galería biográfica de artistas españoles del siglo XIX (1868-1869), Manuel Osso- rio dedicó una cumplida reseña a Rosario Weiss, sirviéndose en gran medida de la nota necrológica que Juan Antonio Rascón había publicado en la Gaceta de Madrid Een septiembre de 1843. De un total de 1837 artistas, Ossorio incluyó en la primera edición de su diccionario a 175 mujeres, la mayoría de ellas «aficionadas». A Weiss le dedicó una de las semblanzas más extensas entre éstas, pese a reconocer que «apenas quedan obras de su mano, aunque no es un misterio lo mucho que trabajó»1. La falta de un número repre- sentativo de obras, necesario para conocer y valorar su producción, se ha mantenido hasta fechas recientes. Su presencia habitual en la bibliografía artística se ha debido más a su relación con Francisco de Goya –con quien convivió durante su infancia y adolescencia, y quien la inició en el dibujo– que a su faceta como creadora. Si a esto se añade la sospecha legendaria de que el pintor era también su padre, se entiende que el interés se haya decan- tado más por lo biográfico que por lo profesional y artístico. Sin menospreciar lo primero y sin entrar en el asunto de la supuesta paternidad, este catálogo presenta un estudio razo- nado de sus dibujos, lenguaje gráfico en el que se inició de la mano de Goya y en el que evolucionó –con notable influencia de su preceptor bordelés, Pierre Lacour– hasta adquirir un estilo propio que le procuró un considerable reconocimiento.

Contemporary Spain remains marginalized at the periphery of European civilization, as if deemed not yet ready, like its colonies, to put Enlightenment ideals into practice. Chateaubriand perpetuates this remoteness of the Iberian Peninsula by setting an interracial, interfaith romance, Les Aventures du dernier Abencérage, in the distant past of Moorish Spain, when, in fact, interracial romances prompted much contemporary debate in the American colonies. Th is article analyzes the contrast between an idealized vision of aristocratic liberty and equality set in 1526 and the pragmatic politics of liberal imperialism when it came to Spain’s future and the fate of its Spanish colonies. Th e fi rst part interprets the story against the backdrop of its writing in 1810 shortly aft er Napoleon’s invasion of Spain.
