GOYA Y LUCIENTES, FRANCISCO
JOSÉ DE, born at
Fuendetodos, Aragon,
March 30,
1746, died at Bordeaux,
April 15,
1828. Spanish
school; history,
genre, and portrait
painter, pupil for
five years of Lujan
Martinez at Saragossa;
spent several years in Rome, painting
little, but making a careful study of the
great pictures there. In 1772 he took the
second prize at the Academy of Parma, and
three years later returned to Madrid and
painted many genre pictures which soon
made him popular. In 1780 he became a
member of the Academy of San Fernando,
in 1795 director of the same, and painter in
ordinary to Charles IV., an honour continued
under Ferdinand VII. Goya painted also
religious compositions and portraits, but he
is best known as a satirist and caricaturist
of very remarkable, though eccentric, genius,
as his many etchings and sketches abundantly
show. He has been called the Hogarth
of Spain. Works: Equestrian Portrait of
Charles IV., do. of Queen Maria Luisa,
