Collections, Catalogs & Exhibitions - Italian Master Drawings from the Princeton University Art Museum

Description

Book Synopsis: This richly illustrated volume offers a new look at the exceptional collection of Italian drawings at the Princeton University Art Museum. An introductory essay by Laura M. Giles chronicles the history and significance of the collection, and nearly one hundred of the collection’s masterworks are treated with essay-length entries and full-page images.
