First published in 1998, this volume twelve scholars explore ways
in which drawings were employed and appreciated in various European
Cities form late medieval times, through the Renaissance and
Reformation periods and into the early seventeenth century. The
essayists examine the relationship between preparatory sketches and
finished artworks in more durable and expensive materials, and
consider the roles played by various drawing types, such as studies
from different kinds of model and student copies from a master's
exemplar. They also investigate how drawings and their
mechanically- reproduced equivalents- engravings, etchings and
other forms of print - came to be collected for both practical and
connoisseurial purposes, and how iconographical and stylistic
inventiveness were linked to imaginative artistic interpretations
of traditional subjects and to technical innovations in drawing and
printmaking. Through diverse approaches to the study of artists'
attitudes and ambitions, the essays in Drawing 1400-1600 offer ways
of appreciating the complex and fascinating history of the practice
and theory of drawing over two centuries during which the
expressive potential of the medium was realized in some of the
greatest artistic statements of all time.
