“Goya was an innovative painter and etcher and one of the great masters of Spanish painting. Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes was born near Saragossa in Aragon on 30 March 1746. His father was a painter. Goya's formal artistic education began at the age of 14 when he was apprenticed to a local painter. In 1763 Goya went to Madrid and worked under another artist from Aragon, Francisco Bayeu, whose sister he married.
In 1771, Goya visited Italy. By 1775, he had settled in Madrid and was designing for the Royal Tapestry Factory. In 1786, he was appointed court painter to Charles IV.
In the winter of 1792, Goya became seriously ill and was left totally deaf. This was a turning point in his career. His paintings were transformed from his previous Rococo style to a more expressionistic vision and he chose increasingly dark subject matters.
During the brutal Napoleonic occupation of Spain, Goya saw at first hand the horrors of warfare. These inspired a series of etchings 'The Disasters of War' and two paintings '2 May 1808' and '3 May 1808'.
In around 1820, Goya began a series of frescoes on the walls of his country house near Madrid, which became known as the 'Black Paintings'.
In 1824, political upheavals in Spain forced Goya to go into exile in France. He returned to Madrid for a brief visit in 1826, but died in Bordeaux on 16 April 1828.” BBC History
This is the first of four Powerpoint on US gallery to be released on the next few day. In 1974 Norton Simon agreed to take over the Pasadena Art Museum, giving his collection a permanent home. In 1995, the museum began a major renovation and design. It also included a new theatre. Norton Simon started collecting seriously in 1964, when he purchased the entire European collection of the Duveen Brot. Today, his collection on European paintings is broadly based and methodological. The collection covers the whole span of European painting developments from the early Renaissance to modern days. All the mainstream movements are represented by works from the masters. However, one noticeable absence are paintings from America. In 1970s the collection started to include Asian Arts. Today, there are some 4,000 works in the collection. On European paintings the collection would complement to that of the more well-known Paul Getty Museum. Ion paintings, it must rank as one of the best on the west coast of America.

Ever since Peter the Great, it was Russian policy to become a major European power. He lead a cultural revolution with an aim to transform the traditional and medieval social and political system into a modern society. In 1764, two years after Catherine the Great on the throne, She brought out Gotzkowski’s collection of 225 paintings, mainly Dutch and Flemish paintings. Politically, Empress Catherine’s patronage would enhance her image of an enlightened monarch. The Gotzkowski’s collection makes up the core of the paintings in Hermitage. In general the Hermitage collection is quite representative of the development of European arts since the 17C. After Catherine the Great, successive monarchs had added to the collection. It is really surprising to find large number of Impressionists paintings and modern paintings in the collection.
The iconography of 'Madonna and Child' and 'Venus and Cupid' in the most repr...PasqualeRaimo
Questo ciclo di lezioni in lingua inglese, prende il titolo “Un viaggio nell’arte tra l’amore sacro e profano”. In pratica viene messo a confronto il tema iconografico della Madonna con il Bambino e quello di Venere con Cupido attraverso le opere d’arte più rappresentative esposte in quattro tra i più rappresentativi musei d’Europa: The State Hermitage Museum di SanPietroburgo, il Victoria and Albert Museum di Londra, il Museo di Capodimonte di Napoli e il Museo del Prado di Madrid.
Prima di passare alla visione le singole opere d’arte, il progetto prevede un conciso cenno storico circa l’origine e la struttura dei suddetti musei. Le opere che saranno analizzate sono soprattutto dipinti, oscillanti cronologicamente tra l’XI e il XIX secolo, ma non mancherà la descrizione anche di oggetti d’arte di diversa tipologia (sculture, bronzi, arti applicate, etc.). Per ogni opera esaminata, prima della sua descrizione si procederà con una breve introduzione biografica dell’autore.

History
4. Artists in the Prado
Francisco de Goya
• Even before entering the museum you can see a statue of Goya in front of the ritz hotel by the
Prado.
• With more than 100 paintings, the Goya collection is by far the largest of all in the Prado
• His works are truly impressive and are especially interesting because of the different phases of
his life: from pauper to frivolous court painter to portraying the unpleasantries of deafness and
depression
• In the Prado, his life stages are divided into several rooms, ending with the Pinturas Negras or
"black paintings" from his depressive episode.
Diego Velázquez
• Velázquez was a court painter under King Philip IV
• His portraits are often extremely interesting for the hidden truths that underlie the visual image
• He was named "El pintor de la verdad", or "painter of the truth."
El Greco
• Though he often painted figures and scenes from Roman Catholicism, El Greco and his family were Orthodox Greeks
(However, in his last will and testament, El Greco described himself as a “devout Catholic.”)
• Trained as an icon painter at the Cretan school, he was already considered a “master” at the age of twenty-two
• His outspokenness and strong opinions made him enemies wherever he went.
• He spent the last part of his life in Toledo and travelled very little

7. Fun Facts
➢ Picasso was the director of the Prado-In September 1936, the Republican
government named Pablo Picasso director of the Prado
➢ On november the 19th and May the 18th, entrance to the Museum is FREE!
➢ There was a ‘naked room’!
➢ in 1827 the museum acquired 37 naked portraits and at the time these were considered indecent for public
exposure. The King stated that: “it is His Majesty’s will that under no circumstances will they be exhibited
to the public those that due to the lack of decency of its items and other circumstances that they have
deserve to be placed in a reserved location”.
➢ Therefore until 1838, these portraits were put together in a room known as the ‘reserved’ room.
➢ Prado Museum has been a victim of a stealing attempt. The event was quite
grotesque and curious. In 1961, when the thief wanted to enter the museum
from its ceiling, he fell down to the ground and died.
