Description
Francisco Goya Spanish (1746-1828) The Little Prisoner etching Published by La Gazette des Beaux Arts and printed by Imprimerie Delâtre, Paris. Mark left by passepartout (outside the plate margins, remnants of hinge tissue on the back). 3 3/4"H x 2 3/8"W (plate), 12"H x 10"W (mat) Born in Spain in 1746, Francisco Goya was a world-respected artist who worked in a bold and romantic rococo style. Goya's etchings and paintings include many subversive or whimsical elements, and have often been taken as political statements. Goya served for years as Painter to the King and was Director of Painting at the Royal Academy of San Fernando, where he once studied. He is one of the last Old Masters, whose popularity extended far beyond his public civic life. Francisco Goya's paintings have influenced the work of many great painters.While committing to canvas an astonishing amount of officially-commissioned work, Goya also created custom works of portraiture and small paintings of grotesque nature for his lesser-known but wealthy clientele. Goya's etchings and prints for sale, such as the Disasters of War series, are realistically and dramatically composed.
