GOYA & MODERN ART
Francisco Goya (1746-1828) possessed an unflinching eye. Documenting the atrocities of war and the political turbulence of his time, Goya depicts a world beset by murder, madness and monsters. His example set a precedent for contemporary depictions of conflict, including those of Picasso, Leon Golub and the Chapman Brothers.
