12. Francisco de Goya

Described as one of the old masters by some, and the first modern painter by others, this artist is truly in a class all by himself. Though he began during the Rococo period, despised the Neoclassical style, and was labeled as a Romanticist, he created in a style that was his alone.  In this episode, we talk about Francisco de Goya and one of his most famous works, The Third of May, 1808.
