Abstract: During his own lifetime Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was thought to be without rival in his native Spain. Since his death, his legacy has received ever-higher acclaim. This illustrated catalogue presents several distinct aspects of Goya's oeuvre, including the tapestry cartoons, his religious works and still-life paintings, related to the inventory of works of art he kept for himself in his studio. These diverse groups afford a series of insights into this artist's successful career. In turn, it shows that Goya at his most public can be as private and revealing as he is in the works he held back from public view.
