After an informative and engaging context-setting introductory chapter about the Napoleonic Wars, this biography describes what's known about Goya's early years, then delves into the painter's later life and works. The writing is notable for how it sets the scene historically while describing Goya's influences and lasting impact. Reproductions whet the appetite for more visuals.
