What to look for

Francisco Goya: dark, unidealised faces and loose, rapid brushwork; court portraits that flatter no one, and from his later years black, nightmarish scenes of war and madness.

Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Wikipedia
