Francisco Goya, the Spanish painter, suffered from a disease of uncertain etiology which affected his vision, hearing, and balance. The nature of his illness probably was a curious syndrome known today as Vogt-Koyanagi=Harada or uveomeningoencephalytic syndrome. This is an autoimmune disorder which involves the visual and cochlear pigment derived from the neural crest. The common finding in all cases described in the literature is bilateral uveitis. It is interesting to speculate how the period of Goya's artistic output known as the "Black Paintings" might have been created during the time he had the disease.
西班牙画家弗朗西斯科·戈雅患有一种病因不明的疾病，这种疾病影响了他的视力、听力和平衡能力。他所患疾病的本质可能是一种如今被称为伏格特-小柳-原田综合征或葡萄膜脑膜脑炎综合征的奇特病症。这是一种自身免疫性疾病，涉及源自神经嵴的视觉和耳蜗色素。文献中描述的所有病例的常见症状是双侧葡萄膜炎。推测戈雅被称为“黑色绘画”的艺术创作时期是在他患病期间如何完成的，这很有意思。
