Overview

An in-depth look at art from a private collection, many of which are being shared for the first time. The Morgan Museum & Library in New York City will mark its centennial with a special exhibition featuring drawings from the collection of Jean-Marie and Elizabeth Eveillard. Liberty to the Imagination presents this gift of drawings to the Morgan for the first time and includes a catalog of the works with entries from art experts. The drawings, which were created between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries, include unique pieces from Rembrandt, Greuze, Delacroix, and Bonnard. The gift also includes rarely-seen sheets by major artists including Rubens, Guercino, Watteau, Constable, Seurat, Cezanne, and Vuillard. Drawing experts analyze each sheet in fully illustrated entries, exploring the creation and context of each piece of art. The artistic choices of each artist are analyzed to give readers a deeper understanding of how through art, the imagination is liberated. AUTHOR: John Marciari is the Charles W. Engelhard Curator of Drawings and Prints and curatorial chair at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York City. 60 colour illustrations
