Goya's Madrid, 1800
Madrid in 1800 is a compact Bourbon capital of tile roofs, narrow lanes and new neoclassical monuments, still shaped by Charles III's reforms and the court's presence. The walk traces river crossings, the San Isidro meadow, the new Prado and botanical promenade, palace approaches and busy markets where majos and majas animate the streets.
37 scenes — 25 streets, squares and views, 12 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Madrid as it stood in 1800 (“History of Madrid”).
