The art of Goya in Tokio

The National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo


The Old Master from Spain whose acutely critical eye and intellectual acumen grasped the many diverse aspects of society and human psychology, all helping pave the path for modern painting. Goya's works stand as testament to Europe's age of great social upheavals, as they move us even today, two centuries later. 


This exhibition at the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo presents a selection of oil paintings and drawings, 72 in total from the Museo del Prado in Madrid, along with 51 prints from the collection of the NMWA and other museums in Japan, as it explores Goya's pictorial arts from different vantage points.
