This important volume offers the first comprehensive look at the
Arthur Ross Collection-more than 1,200 17th- to 20th-century
Italian, French, and Spanish prints-and is published to mark the
inaugural exhibition of the collection in its new home at the Yale
University Art Gallery. Highlights include superb etchings by
Canaletto and Tiepolo; the four volumes of Piranesi's Antiquities
of Rome, as well as his famous Vedute (Views) and Carceri
(Prisons); Goya's Tauromaquia in its first edition of 1816; an
extremely rare etching by Edgar Degas; and numerous other
19th-century French prints, by Eugene Delacroix, Honore Daumier,
Edouard Manet, Paul Gauguin, Paul Cezanne, and others. The
accompanying essays discuss the life of Arthur Ross, a significant
philanthropist who funded several arts institutions; the formation
of the collection and the art-historical significance of the works;
and several thematic approaches to studying the collection,
reinforcing its legacy as an important teaching resource.
