About this title

From Library Journal:

This beautiful catalog presents a selection of the master drawings acquired by the Art Institute during the years Harold Joachim served as Curator of Prints and Drawings. Before his death, Joachim himself had selected the majority of these works for a catalog, and now this stands as a tribute to his brilliant work. The introduction traces the history of the drawings collection and Joachim's achievements in its regard. The real subjects of the book, however, are the drawings, breathtakingly reproduced in sumptuous color. Each drawing is accompanied by a scholarly catalog entry and brief notes of biographical, descriptive, comparative, and technical information. Recommended for large art collections. Lynell A. Morr, John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art Lib., Sarasota, Fla.
