Two of Francisco Goya's masterpieces, the Maja desnuda and the Maja vestida, will be loaned by the Prado Museum to the Ermitage museum in St Petersburg for 70 days starting from November next. The loan was accepted following the sending by the Ermitage museum to Madrid in 1991 of two paintings by Leonardo da Vinci and Caravaggio.
The Russian museum only owns one painting by Goya so far.
