Produktbeschreibung
"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.

Autorenporträt
Carlos Arroyos was born in Barbastro (Huesca, Spain). He¿s married and has three children. He spent his childhood in small Aragonese towns - much like Fuendetodos, Goyäs birthplace- and enjoyed the multiple customs and traditions whose origins date to the early days of the Aragonese crown and are still practised today.He has a collection of more than 600 books on Francisco de Goya, one of the factors that motivated him to write this book on the 275th anniversary of the birth of the brilliant and universal painter.
