Book excerpt: Excerpt from Francisco Goya: A Study of the Work and Personality, of the Eighteenth Century Spanish, Painter and Satirist With the exception of two short monographs by Mr. William Rothenstein and Mr. Albert F. Calvert, together with a translation of a slight critical essay by Dr. Richard Müther, no biography of Francisco Goya has yet appeared in English. The time seems ripe for a volume which attempts to show this fine genius in relation to the art of his own country, as well as to that of the other schools of painting in Europe. England has been comparatively late in its appreciation of Goya, but across the Channel a steady stream of critical exegesis has flowed from the day when Theophile Gautier returned to Paris after his voyage of discovery beyond the Pyrenees. The first biography of Goya, by Laurent Matheron, was published in France, and appropriately dedicated to Eugene Delacroix. Nine years later came a more ambitious performance by Charles Yriarte. In the meanwhile the index of the Gazette des Beaux-Arts will reveal what an impression Goya's paintings and etchings had been creating in the French studios. Bürger-Thore, Feuillet de Conches, F. Lagrange, Jacques Desrosiers, Paul Lefort, Charles Blanc, Philippe Burty, and a dozen other well-known critics of the Second Empire, continually quoted and alluded to Goya in their articles.

Book Synopsis Goya, the Origins of the Modern Temper in Art by : Fred Licht
Download or read book Goya, the Origins of the Modern Temper in Art written by Fred Licht and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newly revised and lavishly illustrated, this acclaimed study of Spanish master Francisco Goya reveals the artist as a pioneer of modern art and culture. Stunning color reproductions comprehensively survey Goya's paintings and prints in this essential study of his art and its impact on the modern world. Fred Licht's masterful text, revised and updated for this edition, has been hailed as "brilliant" and "profound," one of the most original and illuminating studies of a modern European artist. Born in 1746 in a small Aragonese town, Goya rose to prominence in Madrid in the period around 1780, being named court painter in 1786. The atrocities of the Napoleonic period and the repressions of the restored Bourbon regime led Goya to paint his greatest works, now recognized as harbingers of modern art. Goya died in exile in France in 1828. Organized according to the mediums and genres in which the artist worked, Goya is a series of investigations of those aspects of Goya's art that make it especially relevant today. By focusing closely on the work, Licht also illuminates, as few before him have done, the enigmatic personality of this artist, who, as the author affirms, "first fixed the courage and the despair of our modern age." AUTHOR Fred Licht is curator at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice. He has taught at Princeton University, Williams College, and Brown University. He is the author of Canova and Manet, among other titles. The exhibitions he has organized include Picasso--the Artist in the Studio and Boccioni's Horse. In 1981 he was awarded the College Art Association's Charles Rufus Morey Book Award for Goya: The Origins of the Modern Temper in Art. ILLUSTRATION 297 illustrations
Book Synopsis Goya, Disasters and Bullfighting by : Alonso Ruiz
Download or read book Goya, Disasters and Bullfighting written by Alonso Ruiz and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-23 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great Spanish artist, Francisco de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828), surpass the limits of genius with his paintings and engravings. This book shows all the prints or drawings of the series Disasters of War: 82 high quality prints. These etchings were made by Goya from1810 to 1815. With the printed images Goya exposes the hunger, anguish, savagery and death that generated the Spanish War of Independence (1808-1814). Also, the book has 33 prints of the series Bullfighting, Published in 1816, these drawings reflected the different expressions of bullfighting, the triumph of the best bullfighters, in addition to the mishaps and misfortunes that occurred during the fight. The etchings are characterized by their beauty and quality. Each of these 115 engravings has a brief description of the technique used for its elaboration, the title and the range of years in which it was created. Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes Goya was a very talented painter. His paintings and engravings are famous, all of them of a patent realism: he never tried to embellish the portraits of the aristocrats or the actions of the characters in their engravings.Francisco de Goya was born in Fuendetodos, Spain, on March 30, 1746. His father was a gilder of Basque origin, Don José Goya, and a noble woman named Gracia Lucientes, both of medium social status.In the year of 1770, he began his trip to Italy, an essential country for those who, like him, sought to improve their artistic skills. In cities like Rome, Venice and Milan, he studied the art by Rafael, Rubens and Reni. Undoubtedly the painter took advantage of his stay, since the study of those masterpieces gave a great boost to his strokes. After a year he returned to Zaragoza, in his native Spain.Sometime later, in 1773, the painter married Josefa Bayeu, sister of his protectors, and with whom he would have six children. At the end of 1775 he was called to the Spanish court to paint tapestry boards. The best-known works of that period are: The Snowfall, The Injured Bricklayer and The Blind Chicken, among others. For twelve years he performed these tasks, until an accident caused him to renounce such activity. Goya deafened due to a strange disease. In the year 1824, and for political reasons, Goya announced his retirement from the court and underwent a self-exile in which he accompanied his friends, who were forced into leave the country. His new residence was Bordeaux, a port city in the southwest of France. Goya would eventually suffer health problems due to his advanced age, for such reasons, some relatives traveled to visit him, including his grandson and daughter-in-law. On March 28, 1828 his health condition worsened due to a fall down the stairs.The great Spanish painter had to stay in bed and there was no possible recovery. Francisco de Goya y Lucientes died on April 16, 1828 surrounded by friends and family in that French exile.

Book Synopsis Francisco de Goya and the Art of Critique by : Anthony J. Cascardi
Download or read book Francisco de Goya and the Art of Critique written by Anthony J. Cascardi and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An innovative study of Goya's unprecedented elaboration of the critical function of the work of art Francisco de Goya and the Art of Critique probes the relationship between the enormous, extraordinary, and sometimes baffling body of Goya’s work and the interconnected issues of modernity, Enlightenment, and critique. Taking exception to conventional views that rely mainly on Goya’s darkest images to establish his relevance for modernity, Cascardi argues that the entirety of Goya’s work is engaged in a thoroughgoing critique of the modern social and historical worlds, of which it nonetheless remains an integral part. The book reckons with the apparent gulf assumed to divide the Disasters of War and the so-called Black Paintings from Goya’s scenes of bourgeois life or from the well-mannered portraits of aristocrats, military men, and intellectuals. It shows how these apparent contradictions offer us a gateway into Goya’s critical practice vis-à-vis a European modernity typically associated with the Enlightenment values dominant in France, England, and Germany. In demonstrating Goya’s commitment to the project of critique, Cascardi provides an alternative to established readings of Goya’s work, which generally acknowledge the explicit social criticism evident in works such as the Caprichos but which have little to say about those works that do not openly take up social or political themes. In Francisco de Goya and the Art of Critique, Cascardi shows how Goya was consistently engaged in a critical response to—and not just a representation of—the many different factors that are often invoked to explain his work, including history, politics, popular culture, religion, and the history of art itself.
Book Synopsis The Disasters of War by : Francisco Goya
Download or read book The Disasters of War written by Francisco Goya and published by Dover Publications. This book was released on 1967-06-01 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strikingly original characterizations and sharply drawn scenes that came to be known posthumously as Los Desastres de la Guerra (The Disasters of War) are among Francisco Goya's most powerful works and one of the masterpieces of Western civilization. Goya's model for his visual indictment of war and its horrors was the Spanish insurrection of 1808 and the resulting Peninsular War with Napoleonic France. The bloody conflict and the horrible famine of Madrid were witnessed by Goya himself, or were revealed to him from the accounts of friends and contemporaries. From 1810 to 1820, he worked to immortalize them in a series of etchings. The artist himself never saw the results. The etchings were not published until 1863, some 35 years after his death. By then, the passions of the Napoleonic era had subsided and the satirical implications in Goya's work were less likely to offend. The Dover edition reproduces in its original size the second state of this first edition, which contained 80 prints. Three additional prints not in the 1863 edition are also included here, making this the most complete collection possible of the etchings Goya intended for this series. The bitter, biting captions are reprinted, along with the new English translations, as are the original title page and preface.

Download or read book Goya, Chronicler of War : the Disasters and War Photography written by Francisco Goya and published by Bright Sparks. This book was released on 2009 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the prints of The Disasters Goya compliled a collection of the horrors of the Spanish Peninsular War again Napoleon's troops (1808-14). But his condemnation is impartial, alternately critical of the cruelty on both sides, and this is why his etchings have become a pacifist discourse that is timeless in its scope. These images are the artist's first banging on the table in protest, and they speak directly to our consciences. The way Goya represented war is far removed from any idea of heroism and has few precedents in the history of art. His vehemence is certainly unique, however, Goya placed his genius in the service of a cause which had no impact on the society of his time. His opinions, full of intelligent doubts and mixed feelings, remained etched on those prints like a condemnation of war. The object of this exhibition is to project Goya's condemnation forward to our time. And his indignation has been best captured by certain war photographers. Through their dangerous work many of them have constructed a discourse which echoes Goya's view as applied to our own shameful conflicts.' ... p. 17
