Die Grafische Sammlung im Schaezlerpalais, Gebunden

Klappentext

A selection of 120 drawings from the holdings of the Graphic Art Collection of Augsburg's Art Collections and Museums provides a comprehensive overview of the art of drawing in German-speaking countries in the period from 1600 to ca. 1780. A particular focus of the collection is on the art of drawing in Augsburg, a city that was one of the most innovative art centres in Germany during the 17th and 18th centuries. Designs for ceiling frescoes and altarpieces, models for copperplate engravings, sculptures, and album pages are on display, as well as portraits and landscapes. Artists such as Johann Rottenhammer, Johann Heinrich Schönfeld and Joseph Werner epitomize the high quality of drawing in 17th-century Augsburg, while Johann Wolfgang Baumgartner, Johann Georg Bergmüller and Johann Evangelist Holzer are representative of the 18th century.
