Datos Artisticos y Cultural

"El Quitasol" is a work by Spanish painter Francisco de Goya (1746-1828). He made this painting in 1777 as a design to be used in the manufacture of a royal tapestry. At that time Goya was already famous for the elegance of his artwork and his ability to capture ordinary events in realistic detail. The brilliant colors of this painting suggest a happy moment of relaxation for two young people." (Pearson, 2018)​
