Synopsis

   ‘The Origin of Genius’ is a spot made for the Tourism Department of the Zaragoza City Council that

highlights the figure of Francisco de Goya as a key tourist attraction of the city. Goya, one of the
greatest masters of Spanish painting, was born in Fuendetodos in 1746 and moved to Zaragoza
as a child. He lived here until the age of 29, and in this city, he forged his character and developed
his artistic talent. The video follows in the footsteps of the young Goya, from his first encounters
with painting to his early successes. The narrative merges the classic with the modern, presenting
a female protagonist with a contemporary aesthetic, who explores the places where Goya lived and
worked. Through dynamic shots and a dynamic execution, the video showcases the essence of Goya
as an immortal icon whose creativity remains alive in present-day Zaragoza.
