Goya's Paintings

Goya's body of work created during his career is characterized by the application of different pictorial styles according to his age. Thus, his works span from the Late Baroque he began studying at 13, to Romanticism known towards the end of his years.

Experts consider the stylistic transformation of the painter to have occurred very slowly. Goya did not possess an innate and evident mastery; in fact, having participated in numerous painting competitions and study grants, he achieved very limited success.
