"The Roots of Francisco" de Goya describes the famous Spanish painter s beginnings in Aragon, the fertile ground which nurtured his soul and intelligence and bore his genius.

Goya was born in 1746 in Fuendetodos, a small town in the province of Zaragoza, where he lived in a rural and family-centred community. He enjoyed the colourful scenery, which changed with the seasons, and participated in the region s frequent traditional festivals and ceremonies. Goya moved on to Zaragoza and Madrid, evolving as a prolific artist and painting many portraits of prominent figures of the era. As a witness to revolutionary times and tumult in Europe, Francisco de Goya enjoyed a life as colourful and interesting as the tapestries and paintings he masterfully created, yet he never forgot his roots in Fuendetodos.
