catalog abstract ""Widely regarded as one of the greatest draftsmen of all time, Annibale Carracci (1560-1609) is celebrated for his naturalism. Born in a time when the elegant deformations and exaggerations of Italian mannerism were still in vogue, Annibale turned instead to nature and reality as his principal inspirations. Much attuned to the everyday world around him, he took as much interest in studying a man bowling, a butcher weighing a piece of meat, or a street entertainer with his monkey as he did in the preparatory studies for his grand mythological and religious paintings." "The fruit of this intensive study is abundantly evident in his magnificent drawings of the human figure - from his early works in Bologna to those made in preparation for his greatest commission, the decoration of the Farnese Gallery in Rome." "This publication brings together the powerful and evocative drawings to provide a unique insight into the technique and skill of one of the premier artists of his time."--Jacket.".
