Frescoes in the Cartuja de Aula Dei
The Frescoes in the Cartuja de Aula Dei (1774) are a cycle of frescoes or mural paintings on the Life of the Virgin by Francisco de Goya, realised in ''secco'' (i.e., painted in oils directly onto the wall surface), in the church of the Charterhouse of Aula Dei ((スペイン語:Cartuja de Aula Dei)) near Peñaflor de Gállego on the outskirts of Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain.
==History==
After his return from a learning trip to Italy, Goya received various commissions for frescoes. One was for the Basílica del Pilar in Zaragoza, where he painted the ''Adoration of the Name of God''. Another, for the church of the Charterhouse of Aula Dei, where his brother-in-law Manuel Bayeu was a monk,() was a series on the Life of the Virgin up to the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple,〔the cycle as originally painted went up to the Flight into Egypt, but that painting did not survive〕 which he completed in 1774.
In this work Goya showed his mastery of large-scale mural painting, handling scenes each measuring between five and ten metres in length and one to three metres in height, and between them covering the entire area of the interior walls of the Carthusian church.
Of the original eleven paintings there now remain only seven, as a result of damage consequent upon the abandonment of the monastery during the ''Desamortizacion'', or dispossession of the church, by Juan Álvarez Mendizábal in 1835-37. The other four〔''Presentation of the Virgin in the Temple'', ''The Annunciation'', ''The Nativity'' and ''The Flight into Egypt''〕 had to be re-painted, by the brothers Paul and Amedée Buffet in 1903, after the charterhouse was reacquired by the Carthusian Order for the accommodation of two exiled French Carthusian communities in 1901. The seven surviving pictures were also damaged by the years of neglect and exposure, and were restored in 1978-79.()
