Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His paintings, drawings and engravings reflected contemporary historical upheavals and influenced important 19th- and 20th-century painters; Goya is often called the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns.
