The Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando (RABASF; German Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando ) is a Spanish art academy and museum based in Madrid .
academy
The art academy was formally founded by Philip V in 1744. It was a demand of the Spanish Paragon that had been raised for a long time, but had not yet been realized . However, it was only opened under the enlightened despot King Ferdinand VI. on April 12, 1752 with the original name Real Academia de las Tres Nobles Artes de San Fernando . In 1773 the academy acquired its current main building at 13 Calle de Alcalá ; the Palacio Goyeneche, which was built 50 years earlier according to plans by the architect José Benito Churriguera . The baroque-style building was later partially redesigned in a neoclassical style. The “three noble arts” (tres nobles artes) mentioned in the founding name were painting , sculpture and architecture . The academy was given its current name in 1873 when the music department was added. During the siege of Madrid by the putschists under Francisco Franco , the academy was bombed on November 16, 1936, on the same day the Museo del Prado and the Museo Antropológico were shelled by the air forces of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, allied with the nationalists. In 1966 it was incorporated into the university. In 1987 the courses in photography , video art , film studies and television studies were added. The academy is spread over three properties within Madrid.
museum
The associated museum shows the works of the most important Spanish artists in 59 exhibition rooms, including Goya , Murillo and Zurbarán , but also numerous masters from the Spanish Netherlands . The works come from donations from the Spanish royal family, from the nationalized possession of ecclesiastical orders that were dissolved in the course of the disamortization , or from private collections, for example by Manuel de Godoy (from 1816), Manuel Fernández Varela (1833), or Don Manuel García de la Prada (1839). In addition to paintings, sculptures and the evidence of architecture and music, drawings are also represented.
