| One of the greatest
Spanish masters. Just as Goya found inspiration in the work of Velázquez,
so Goya in turn inspired Édouard Manet and Pablo Picasso. Trained
in a mediocre Rococo artistic milieu, Goya transformed this often
frivolous style and created works, such as the famous Third of May,
1808 (1814, Prado, Madrid), that have as great an impact today as
when they were created. |
