Two centuries after Francisco de Goya's death, Spain has begun the deliberate work of remembrance. The Cabinet's approval of a National Commission this week sets in motion a two-year effort to determine how the country will present one of history's most searching artists to itself and to the world in 2028. Goya—who stood at the threshold between the old European tradition and the modern sensibility—left behind questions about power, freedom, and human dignity that remain stubbornly unresolved, and Spain's bicentennial planning suggests an awareness that honoring him demands more than ceremony.
