The remainder of the book charts the artist's entire career, describing his painted and graphic oeuvre within its historical context. Particular attention is paid to Goya's patrons, his favourite themes (portraits, scenes of warfare and terror, satirical prints and so on), his criticism of the Catholic Church and encounters with the Inquisition, his fierce anti-war stance and his reputation in his lifetime. What emerges is a picture of an artist deeply engaged with life around him and fully committed to documenting it with an unflinching eye for truth and injustice.Hide synopsis

Full of fine reproductions and insightful text, Hughes has written a superlative book of art history. Goya and his times come alive as the author interprets his paintings and prints within the context of the Inquisition and social turmoil in 18th century Spain.
