- Goya's art has always been difficult to define.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)The requisites of space, with the eighteenth-century galleries a wing away from those of the nineteenth, are perhaps least kind to those powerful figures whose sixty-year-long careers straddle two ages -- the age of artifice and the age of actuality -- and whose art recorded the transitions between the two.
