GOYA, THE MASTER OF THE MODERN MASTERS

While reading the news this morning, I learned that the Goya´s fantastic surreal drawing The Butterfly Bull had been sold at a Christie´s auction.

Goya happens to be one of my favorite painters. I am especially fond of his so called “Black Paintings” from his self-imposed retirement period at his Quinta del Sordo (House of the Deaf Man). I cannot recall being so impressed by any other collection of paintings.

I found an excellent site to see them all HERE
