"Master Drawings" Exhibition
Mireille Mosler Ltd.
This event has ended.
The works on paper exhibited at Mireille Mosler Ltd, spanning more than five centuries, are by a diverse group of artists from different regions. The earliest drawing is a View of Prague by Roelant Savery (1576-1639), an artist born in Flanders, who traveled to Prague in 1604 to work at the court of Rudolf II. A large group of more than thirty botanical watercolors of tulips depicts the variety of this popular flower in the Golden Age in the Netherlands. A drawing on prepared panel by Pieter Coopse (circa 1640-1673) exemplifies this rare kind of pen schilderij (pen painting), a technique at times used for marine painting in the seventeenth century. A series of drawings by the self-taught seventeenth century draughtsman Jan van Call (1656-1703) show views of Syria, Egypt and Italy.
