His father was a gilder, working on important projects including the construction of Nuestra Señora del Pilar, one of the largest churches in Europe at the time. This would have allowed the young Goya to experience contact with the artistic and professional world first hand from a young age. Indeed, it seems likely that it was his father's connections to the family of the artist José Luzán Martínez that first enabled Goya to try his hand in the studio. After studying for a few years under Luzán in Zaragoza, Goya moved to Madrid to work under Francisco Bayeu. His ambition was quite evident: paying his own fare for a trip to Rome to experience the frescoes of the renaissance masters. Upon returning to Madrid, Goya enhanced his position at court and ingratiated himself with the wealthy and the powerful through numerous commissioned works. A series of impressive tapestry cartoons and portraits of influential members of the court resulted, on the accession of Carlos IV and Maria Luisa in 1789, in his being appointed Court Painter.SHIPPING IS CALCULATED AND INCLUDES DELIVERY CONFIRMATION .
