Sobre las Capitulaciones Matrimoniales de Francisco de Goya y La Prisa del Aragonés en Abandonar Roma

Abstract

The discovery of the marriage contract of Francisco de Goya has helped to clarify, among other things, certain aspects of the presence of the Aragonese painter in Italy. A detailed analysis of one of the documents in the dossier, not transcribed until now, throws new light on the reasons for Goya's haste to return to Spain, as well as on the role played by Juan Adán and Manuel Eraso in facilitating the wedding of the artist with Josefa Bayeu. This article is part of one of the lines of research for the project ACAF/ART (HAR2009- 07053), and has been developed under its sponsorship.
