Spanish Drawings in the Princeton University Art Museum
Princeton, EEUU
The research project and its publication have been underwritten by the CSA in collaboration with
the Princeton University Art Museum
and Yale University Press
The Princeton University Art Museum’s collection of Spanish drawings includes masterworks by artists such as Ribera, Murillo, Goya, Picasso, and Dalí. Although many of these drawings in relate to celebrated paintings, commissions, and other works by these artists, they remain largely unknown. Most have not been published previously and many are attributed here for the first time. In this volume preeminent scholars enrich the growing corpus of work on Spanish drawings with original research.
Each of the eighty-six drawings is reproduced in color, often accompanied by comparative illustrations. Watermarks have been documented with beta radiography and are included in an appendix. Provenances and artist biographies round out this detailed record of one of the most important collections of its kind.
Catalogue by Lisa A. Banner, with contributions by Jonathan Brown, Robert Lubar and Pierre Rosenberg.
