Goya's tapestry cartoons
Goya arrived in Madrid in 1775 and he immediately began to paint tapestry cartoons for the Royal Tapestry Factory. Until 1780, he worked for the factory without a fixed salary.
Villafranca Palace keeps its doors open, throughout the month of July, with the exhibition of the first two series of so important work.

This looks interesting, I suppose I shall have to see it in person!
Thank you, Countess. Your visit will be a great pleasure and very appreciated.
It is interesting to know that these cartoons will become more famous and admired than their later tapestries, because the tapestries were kept in private royal rooms.
How lovely art exhibition we have right now in the Court, indeed it's a lovely collection, and I hope we will have the other parts of it soon.
Congratualtions dear Marquise
Most intriguing! I look forward to visiting this display soon ~
Really wonderful exposition. I just love the bucolic feeling radiating from those masterworks!
