As a young man the artist, Francisco Goya, was the works of Rembrandt and Velazquez and he copied their styles. the 1770's he was commissioned to paint portraits of the Spanish Royal family, often portraying them as comical figures, but Goya lost his sense of humour in 1792 when he became deaf as the result of a serious illness. His painting style darker to match his increasingly pessimistic attitude towards life. After the Franco-Spanish war in 1814, he painted the masterpiece 'The Third of May', which depicts the true horror of war. Of all the periods in Goya's career, however, it is the work he completed shortly before his death that attracts critical attention. In particular, The Black Paintings, a collection of fourteen disturbing and sometimes grotesque images, are difficult to categorize. Many experts think that they express Goya's declining mental state, his of faith in humanity, and his fear of death.
