## 🎨 Goya and the Age of Revolution

This compelling exhibition explores the work of Francisco de Goya, one of the most influential figures in Western art, whose work bridged tradition and modernity.
Through paintings and prints, the exhibition examines themes of:

• War
• Revolution
• Political upheaval
• Human suffering and resilience

Created during a time of profound global change, Goya’s work reflects the impact of events such as the American and French Revolutions and the Napoleonic Wars, offering a deeply human and often haunting perspective on history.
Highlights may include works from his powerful print series, including The Disasters of War, widely regarded as one of the most striking artistic responses to conflict ever created.
