	Also known as The Giant, the below famous painting, traditionally attributed to Goya, is known in Spanish as El coloso and also El gigante (The Giant), El pánico (The Panic) and La tormenta (The Storm). Francisco de Goya - The Colossus (oil on canvas, 1808 - 1812)

	At this point in time, Goya is an old man and generally speaking, his works have become still more shocking. However, along with the grotesque, he keeps cultivating the beautiful in his production. Francisco de Goya - 'Les Jeunes' ('The Young Ones') (oil on canvas, 1810-12) Francisco de Goya - 'Les Vieilles' or 'Time and the Old Women' (oil on canvas, 1810-12)

	I was going to call this post "The Old and The New," but I guess it sounds much better to call it like this: Two Magnificent Portraits Francisco de Goya - Portrait of Mariano Goya, the Artist's Grandson (oil on panel, 1812-14) Francisco de Goya - Portrait of the Duke of Wellington (oil on panel, 1812-14)

	Thank you, Roger. Curiously enough: No, I did not remember until you told me. The article is fascinating... the fact that it leaves a door open to speculation makes it all the more so. Thanks again, Miguel
