For those interested in Francisco de Goya's art and the history of the Royal Tobacco Factory of Seville.
Alfonso Emilio Pérez Sánchez was a Spanish art historian, specialising in Baroque art. From 1983 to 1991 he was director of the Prado Museum, a period during which he led the museum's modernisation as Spain moved to democracy. He had previously been a sub-director of the Prado from 1972 to 1981.
