This volume comprises the fullest and most detailed catalogue of
the drawings by and after Michelangelo in the Ashmolean Museum. It
is one of the most important collections of drawings by this
artist, which also includes drawings after his own by
contemporaries that shed light on lost works as well as the
artist's reputation and influence during the sixteenth century. The
introduction provides a history of Michelangelo's drawings
generally and also surveys the various types of drawing practised
by Michelangelo and an account of his development as a draughtsman.
Most of the drawings in the Ashmolean Museum came from the
collection of Sir Thomas Lawrence, and this book contains a
detailed appendix that traces the histories of all of the drawings
by or after Michelangelo that Lawrence owned, both before he
acquired them and after they were dispersed.
