Hi!!

I just found a Powerpoint presentation that explains the Qualities of
the Romanticism with some examples that include Goya (eg: Emphasis on
Freedom and Individualism, Rebellion in the "Execution of the Citizens
of Madrid, 3 May 1808"), this is the only example where a Goya´s work
is mentioned in this presentation, but after reading this and then see
the Goya´s works it is not difficult to identified other Romantic
Qualities.
I can bring you this ppt.file, a link to a virtual gallery of the
Goya´s works and some interesting articles about Goya.

Will be this suffice as an answer?
Regards.
