When were Goya's headless remains transferred from Bordeaux to Madrid?
Sorry, Heather. I didn't know you were running a poll with the a choice of answers. I thought we had to think of a question like the game show on TV. I was just making a guess, but neither of these places are in your poll.
That's ok, Connie. You're right on track. His eyesight began to fail, then he suffered paralysis, and finally died in 1828 at the age of 82. He was buried in France, but later his remains were moved to Spain and buried in Madrid.

I guess it is sort of a trick question. I did the poll last night as I was really tired. After I went to bed, as I was lying there I realized that I hadn't even given the choice of the right answer! Of course, I was feeling too tired and lazy to get up and change it. Sorry!
Yes, he is now buried in Madrid. Maybe that's why as of right now only 3 people have voted! I really had no idea of the answer when I found the question. I hope I didn't throw too many people off!
Sorry about that everyone!

I did not realize that it was a question since I found this thread late at night, and I thought huh? I was thinking Madrid, but oh well...
