This stunning catalogue of 15th and 16thcentury Italian drawings from Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen will showcase highlights from this outstanding but still relatively little known part of the collection. It includes internationally significant sheets by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Pontormo, Pisanello, Giorgione and Tintoretto, as well as an important group of early Venetian drawings and a large number of workshop studies by Fra Bartolommeo. Published to accompany exhibitions at the Fondation Custodia, Paris, and The Morgan Library & Museum, New York, this volume will mark the conclusion of a five year cataloguing project at Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, funded by the Getty Foundation. During the project all the Italian drawings were fully researched and catalogued, many for the first time. Several of these drawings have not been published in the last 70 years, if at all. The catalogue is a scholarly touchstone for this part of the collection. It includes two essays and 111 catalogue entries based on the online catalogue texts prepared by several Italian drawings specialists. They include the most well known drawings in Rotterdam as well as drawings that have never been published or exhibited before, such as newly attributed sheets by Pontormo, Federico Zuccaro and Aurelio Lomi. 200 illustrations.
