The artist-patron relationship has yielded plenty of great art over the centuries, from Michelangelo's over-the-top Moses on the tomb of Pope Julius II to Velazquez's dutiful Las Meninas and Goya's sneering The Family of Charles IV. Although his work was collected by other artists of note, the publication itself was a financial disaster and Goya was saved only because King Charles IV purchased the plates and more than 200 of the volumes so Goya's costs and reputation could be salvaged. The first school for the deaf was created in Madrid by mandate of Charles IV in 1795. |
