Opis

Published to accompany the first substantial exhibition on the tradition of Spanish drawings to take place in London, this catalogue captures the excitement and importance of this rapidly developing field of study. It presents highlights from The Courtauld Gallery s collection of Spanish drawings, one of the most important in Britain. Comprising some 120 works, the collection ranges from the 16th to the 20th centuries and features examples by many of Spain s greatest artists, including Ribera, Murillo, Goya and Picasso.REVIEWS This volume and the exhibition it represents reflect the recent strong growth of interest in a field of study that has been somewhat in the shadows. The Courtauld Gallery in London holds a collection of roughly 120 Spanish drawings from the 16th to the 20th century. In an oversize format (10x11.5") allowing generous display of the images, this presentation contains highlights from the collection along with scholarly analysis of individual works and an informative essay on the history, theory, and practice of Spanish draughtsmanship and the various regional schools Book News"
