Goyas en Aragón

Introducción

Evolution of Goya's works in Aragón It is impossible to really understand Goya as an artist without studying the works he painted in his home province. His first pictures, painted in Aragón already give evidence of passion and genius. The subject matter of these works are generally of a religious nature. They were painted between 1760 and 1781 for his home parish, his family and members of the Aragonese nobility. His most important clients were without doubt the Aragonese church: the Jesuits, Hospitallers, Carthusians and, shortly before his departure to Madrid, the canons of the Basilica del Pilar. After had left his home province, he continued to work for Aragonese clients as a portrait and religious painter.
