Summary
"This catalogue is the first publication of all the Venetian drawings in the Royal Collection of Graphic Art at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen. Few of these drawings have ever been published, and only a handfull have been shown to the public within living memory. This is very unjust for research in connection with this catalgue has revealed that not only is the number of drawings this geographic region area surprisingly high, but the quality of the drawings is stupendous, counting some of the most beautiful sheets in the collection. Furthermore the comprehensiveness of this part of the collection has proved extraordinary with a very even coverage of the development of draughtmanship in Venice and the Venetian main land from the 1480s, when sketching on paper became common, through the lesser known 17th century to the fall of the Venetian republic in 1797."--from back cover
