The Prado has placed great emphasis on the organisation of this exhibition, which presents a sizeable selection of its collection of paintings, drawings and prints by Goya, one of the artists most admired by the Japanese public. The exhibition is shown at the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo.The works to be shown have been selected with the intention of offering the visiting public a chronological survey of the work of Goya. Without aiming at being exhaustive, the exhibition is structured into different sections in the manner of small visual accounts that analysesd the principal themes depicted by the artist during the course of his career. The result will be to present a series of fundamental ideas around which Goya’s artistic, political and social thinking was articulated.
