«Goya y el Dos de Mayo» is a historical fiction story by Fernando Marías, published by Anaya in paperback (64 pages, in Spanish).
On May 2, 1808, while the people of Madrid face Napoleon's troops, Goya walks to the school for the deaf and dumb to teach painting, not hearing the din because of his deafness. Ana, a maid he wishes to paint, helps him get to safety; the images of the conflict will remain in his memory and years later inspire his paintings.
The edition was published in 2008 in the Mi Primer Libro collection of children's literature (ages 6-11) and features illustrations by Ximena Maier.
Aimed at readers aged 8 to 10, it serves as an introduction to the history of the Dos de Mayo and the figure of Goya.
Fernando Marías Amondo was a Spanish writer.
