| book description |

The third in a series of catalogues on the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, this volume focuses on the museum's holdings of Italian drawings of the 15th and 16th centuries. The catalogue contains entries on over 700 drawings, including preliminary studies for major compositions, cartoons, modelli, independent drawings, and copies after Renaissance and Mannerist masters. Featured are major works by some of the most significant artists of the time: Baccio Bandinelli; Federico Barocci; Fra Bartolommeo; Jacopo Bassano; Vittore Carpaccio; Correggio; Parmigianino; Pisanello; Pontormo; Primaticcio; Raphael; Tintoretto; Veronese; and Taddeo Zuccaro. Each drawing is accompanied by complete and up-to-date documentation, including a detailed description of the physical condition, a fully documented provenance, bibliography and exhibition history. There is also a critical discussion of the attribution, date, subject and function of each piece, as well as a summary of earlier scholarship.
