Monographie sur l'œuvre de Francisco de Goya permettant d'appréhender l'évolution de son travail artistique.

Des cartons pour tapisserie aux peintures religieuses, des satires sociales aux peintures noires, il a su sans cesse renouveler ses sujets tout en manifestant un engagement politique marqué. De cette époque en crise naîtront ses œuvres les plus célèbres, scènes fantastiques peuplées de monstres inquiétants. " Nul n'a osé plus que lui dans le sens de l'absurde possible ", disait Charles Baudelaire.
