La peinture mise en page: historical, literary, and liturgical manuscripts. De Finiguerra a Botticelli: early Renaissance drawings and incunabula from the collection of Baron Edmond de Rothschild
Enluminures du Moyen Age et de la Renaissance: seventy Italian, French, Flemish, and Germanic illuminations from historical, literary, or liturgical manuscripts, dominated by the masterpieces of Lorenzo Monaco, Jean Fouquet, Guillaume Vrelant, Simon Bening, and Giulio Clovio. The Louvre's collection of illuminations remains little known, despite the famous masterpieces it comprises. The publication of the collection's catalogue raisonne' is an opportunity to discover these exquisite works. De Finiguerra a Botticelli, les premiers ateliers italiens de la Renaissance: this exhibition brings together early Renaissance drawings and incunabula from the collection of Baron Edmond de Rothschild. It provides an introduction to the history of the art of engraving in Italy, from its beginnings to the workshops of the late 15th century.
