STYLE OF GOYA. A City on a Rock

A City on a Rock. Artist: Style of Goya (Spanish, 19th century). Dimensions: 33 x 41 in. (83.8 x 104.1 cm).
When <i>A City on a Rock</i> was purchased in Spain in the mid-1880s by an American collector, it was attributed to Francisco de Goya (1746-1828). The painting is now thought to be by one of Goya's followers and may have been painted as late as 1850-75. The artist has studied Goya's technique, and has produced a painting sufficiently close to his style that it was accepted by most authorities until about 1970. The picture appears to be a pastiche, as many compositional elements derive from autograph works by Goya.
