this spanish painter of portraits, the horrors of war and images of women that were banned, has left behind more than his oeuvre to fill the worlds museums. in 1987 the 'goya awards' were established to honor excellence in spanish cinema. the the award itself is a small bust of francisco. one of filmmaker pedro almodovar's three goya awards for best director was for his film, 'woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown.'
