By 1793, the artist Francisco Goya had achieved unprecedented success. Behind him was a long and difficult path - from the threshold of his home in the village of Fuendetodos to the palace of Alba and even to the royal palace - but Goya successfully overcame it. And now, when he, formerly just little Francho, and now the court painter, pintor de cámara, paints portraits of these high-born ladies and gentlemen, it is still unknown who is doing the honor to whom - they him or he them...

The novel "Goya, or the Thorny Path of Knowledge" occupies a special place in the work of Lion Feuchtwanger and is perhaps the writer's most famous work. Originally conceived in 1943, the novel about the Spanish artist Goya y Lucientes was published only in 1951. It took Feuchtwanger seven years – a record long time for him – to create this exceptional artistic biography, which remains an unrivalled example of the genre to this day.

This edition is the first time the famous novel has been published in a new translation by Roman Eyvadis.
