Francisco de Goya was a Spanish painter of the 18th and 19th centuries. He completed an artistic education and had a career at court as a goal. Thus, de Goya, who was still unknown at the time, worked to achieve his dream until he was eventually appointed painter to the king, among others. A few years later, the artist suffered a severe stroke, which caused him to lose his hearing. However, this drastic event did not have a negative impact on his career and he was still the most sought-after portraitist of the court. Later, Francisco de Goya was forced to emigrate to Bordeaux because he was under political persecution. The reason for this was his drawings of the war, which included highly critical portrayals of the church and royal power, causing outrage.
Moving on to the artist's style, it can be seen in his paintings that he drew on many different styles of art, making it impossible to accurately classify his style. However, he began his career predominantly with paintings that can be classified as Rococo. Thus, these paintings were characterized by cheerfulness, elegance and playfulness. After his illness, his style changed enormously, so that instead of the usual cheerful motifs, suddenly gloomy, ghostly figures and darker colors appeared in his paintings. This is explained, among other things, by the fact that the painter had an altered sensory perception due to his deafness and thus perceived his environment more critically. In the following works, a wide variety of styles could still be recognized. In his portrait painting, de Goya completely breaks away from conventional representations and instead transports a lightness and openness in them.
De Goya was by his way of thinking a very progressive and modern artist in his time. This can also be seen in the themes, which often also focused on political or socially critical issues. At that time, art was still understood as a craft, which also means that the artists of that time worked according to orders, which cannot be seen with de Goya. He painted many paintings out of free choice and to illustrate a personal attitude. As an example of this, one can take the famous painting "The Shooting of the Insurgents on May 3, 1808", in which he depicts the political unrest in a very critical way. In this painting, one can also see another characteristic of the artist. De Goya was often provocative with his paintings, not only in a political sense, but also in a social context. In this context, the painting "The Naked Maya" was not only a provocation but also a revolutionary work. At the time, this painting was the first nude painting in Spanish art and was seen by many people as a break with tradition. Despite the criticism of the artist at the time, the aspects that were criticized are exactly what ultimately made de Goya and made him a revolutionary artist in his time.
