Böcker av John Marciari

Essays by an international team of specialists explore the Dutch drawing tradition. This beautifully illustrated scholarly catalog presents a selection of exceptional drawings from the Clement C. Moore Collection, accompanying an exhibition at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York City. The drawings assembled by Moore constitute one of the preeminent private collections of Dutch drawings in America. The collection also includes works by Flemish, French, Italian, and British artists, ranging from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries. These works have long been intended to join the collections at the Morgan Library & Museum, and this exhibition--timed to coincide with the Morgan's centennial celebrations--makes formal the promised gift. This exhibition companion demonstrates the breadth of the Moore Collection with a selection of around eighty works that highlight the principal themes of Dutch art, the various functions and techniques of Dutch drawings, and the connections between the Dutch and other European artistic traditions. Works by Hendrick Goltzius, Jacob de Gheyn II, Jan Brueghel, Rembrandt van Rijn, Aelbert Cuyp, Jacob van Ruisdael, Peter Lely, Claude Lorrain, Thomas Gainsborough, and John Constable are among those featured.
