De la contraportada

This beautiful and comprehensive volume of prints and drawings examines the history of graphic practice in Spain for the first time, providing an overview of more than four hundred years of artistic production and revealing how each region of Spain was an independent centre of artistic activity. Renaissance to Goya includes exquisite examples of prints and drawings from the late fifteenth century through to the Golden Age of the seventeenth century, featuring key works from Berruguete, the Carducho brothers, Murillo, Ribera, Zurbarán and the extraordinary drawings of Velázquez. The book concludes with the Enlightenment and a remarkable collection of Goya prints, and works by Goya s contemporaries Lucas, Camaron and the Tiepolo family of Madrid. Featured are over 150 illustrations from the British Museum's collection, one of the finest outside Spain, last shown in the 1970s and never before catalogued, alongside key works from institutions across Spain.
