¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Francisco de Goya!



AKA Francisco de Goya y Lucientes.

Born March 30, 1746. Died April 16, 1828.

One of the great Spanish artists of all time. Ironically, he's most famous for allegedly painting the Duchess of Alba like one of Jack Dawson's French girls, a deed which may or may not have happened depending on which historian you ask.

He is also famous for this very creepy drawing.

Then again, I did edit that last piece a bit...
