Goya had a complete breakdown both physically & mentally. The Caprichos are a response to the violence of the times as well as the assault on his mind & body. Miserol (1804-6), Teresa Sureda (1804-6), Francisca Sabasa y Garcia (1804-8) & Doña Isabel de Porcel (c1805)
Initially he painted landscapes before, as his reputation grew, he turned to genre by 1808. His first works were shown at the 1804 RA exhibition. Suffolk Landscape (c1810), John Varley (1814) & Horses (1816). Varley was his brother-in-law.
