Master Drawings Close Up

More about the book

Master drawings provide the sense of being close to the artist, of seeing inspiration and creativity firsthand. They allow a glimpse behind the scenes, beyond the final product the artist wanted to show, enabling understanding of the human struggle involved, false starts and failed ideas included. This absorbing new book allows the centuries of time between us and the masters to drop away, putting the reader right beside these tremendous artists as they work. This beautiful book has wide appeal, but will be invaluable for art students, practicing artists, and those who study art and art history.
