Description
Francisco Goya’s Letters of Love and Friendship to Martin Zapater establish a connection between Goya’s private life and his work. The correspondence reflects the painter’s daily life in Madrid during the period from 1775 to 1800; he refers to friends and colleagues, entertainers, bullfighters, and work in progress. The letters are translated within the context of their time, and the translator provides biographical data and notes explaining difficult, archaic, or dialectal words and expressions. An extensive bibliography makes this text relevant not only to interdisciplinary scholars of Goya, but also to those who specialize in eighteenth-century studies.
