This exhibition presents European drawings and prints from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, including notable recent purchases, and a drawing newly attributed to the sixteenth-century Italian master Parmigianino, displayed with sheets by other Emilian artists. A selection of French drawings and Italian mannerist prints from the same period is also on view. The eighteenth century is represented with prints by or after Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Gabriel de Saint-Aubin, and Philibert-Louis Debucourt, together with German rococo ornament drawings and prints. Complementing these are British portrait studies and life drawings, including a pastel by Joseph Wright of Derby, and etchings by Thomas Stothard of The Wellington Shield.
