Francisco Goya ‘Order and Disorder’ at The MFA, Boston


One of the titans of European art, Francisco Goya (1746–1828) has a major retrospective at the MFA in Boston, USA.

Goya witnessed a time of revolution and sweeping change in thought and behavior during the 19th-century and some of his most unique and imaginative observations are on display in this retrospective which features 170 works and is the largest exhibition in the United States since 1989.

“Goya: Order and Disorder” is divided into eight major sections which address such themes as hunting as sport and metaphor; religious devotion and superstition; and the symbolism of the giant, this framework allows for connections across media and time that the artist himself made.

Order and Disorder runs from October 12th, 2014 – January 19th, 2015 at the MFA, Boston, U.S.A.
