A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Goya, cronista de todas las guerras (Goya, Chronicler of All Wars) includes the series "Los Desastres" (The Disasters) - taken from the first edition produced by the Spanish Academy of Fine Arts in 1863 - and two of the original plates, along with an audiovisual summary of the history of war photography and a selection of images from the photographic archive of the Spanish Civil War, preserved by the Biblioteca Nacional (Spanish National Library).The exhibition also features prints of "Las ruinas de Zaragoza" (The Ruins of Saragossa) made by Fernando Bambrila and Juan Gálvez, who, along with Goya, accepted the invitation from General Palafox to contemplate the consequences of the First Siege of Saragossa, perpetrated by French troops upon the capital city of Aragon. Goya's prints are the precursors of the photographic vision, bringing forward the language of the moment using visual resources that announce the aesthetic of photo-journalism.
