Does anyone know of a good site to order prints/posters? I'm looking for Goya's The Giant, and I can't find it anywhere online.
If anyone has any tips, I would be tres thankful.

Just do a search for Goya, and some prints will come up. Well, it doesn't look like they have that particular print there. There is also www.barewalls.com (http://www.barewalls.com/) but I couldn't find it there either.
I did find this, but its in Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC.

If you right click on the picture, save as, to your computer, you could possibly submit it to an online photo place, and ask them to create a poster for you? Maybe. Or, save and print out the mini version.
This was as close as I could find.
What about a nice Los Caprichos #43? or the Third of May?
They seem to have enough Goya posters here that they might be able to track one down for you.

Oops, I thought The Colossus was The Giant, but I remembered that there are 3 paintings with "the giant" (or at least I think so).
A site sent me here, but my computer was running into problems, so I'll give it to you in case it has what you want:

It's not at any of those, but thank you all for helping me look. I wouldn't think it would be that difficult to find a print of it as it's rather famous, but evidently I thought wrong. I think I'm going to ask my art teacher to see if she's ever seen a print of it whenever I go back to school, because she would probably remember it.

Which painting are you looking for? The one of him standing, of mostly the face, or the one where he is turned around? Or none of the above? :)

The one where he is turned around.
