Special Interest day !st November – Goya

SPECIAL INTEREST DAY1st November 2021

2 one-hour lectures from 10.30 – 11.30 am and 11.50 am – 12.50 pm
followed by a short session for questions.

Via ZOOM
GOYA by Dr Jacqueline Cockburn

The study morning will focus on this extraordinarily versatile and fascinating artist.  Dr. Cockburn will consider Goya’s self-portraiture, his rise to Court Painter and his response to historical events, and his ongoing health problems, and the decision to leave Spain.  The second session will assess Goya’s appropriation of previous painters such as Valazquez and some of the great masters of Spanish Still Life such as Zurbaran.  It will be argued that Goya’s reassessment of the past is precisely what makes him so modern.

Although life has returned to some normality, Covid has not gone away, and so the decision was made to zoom this Special Interest day, once again.
