The Quinta’s Ghost

In 1819, an exhausted Francisco de Goya retires to “La Quinta del Sordo” to spend his final days away from public life and focused on his work. Unfortunately, in the deep solitude of that modest country house, the painter falls seriously ill. Closer to death than ever before, Francisco de Goya is visited by the ghosts of his past. Tormented by these visits and with his health rapidly declining, Goya paints the Black Paintings on the walls of his home as a last resort to drive the ghosts out of his life—losing almost everything in the process, including his sanity and nearly his life.
