- Summary:
- Muriel Butkin has formed one of the finest private collections of master drawings, more than 450 in all. She has concentrated on French artists of the 18th and 19th centuries, with particular focus on figure studies, portraits, animals, interiors, mythological subjects, unusual landscapes, and sketchbooks. This beautiful volume publishes the 59 most important drawings, each reproduced in rich duotone and accompanied by a comprehensive essay. Among them are famous works by such artists as Coypel, Boucher, Greuze, David, Gericault, Millet, Degas, Corot, Daubigny, Rodin, and Puvis de Chavannes, as well as previously unknown rarities.
