Riassunto

This book is the first to trace the history and reveal the highlights of the Art Gallery of Ontario's inspiring collection of drawings and watercolours. The AGO founded its prints and drawings department in 1976, and its collection has become one of the fastest growing in North America.
Each of the 100 works in this unconventional selection is accompanied by an insightful commentary by a distinguished expert, providing a fascinating chronicle of five centuries of drawing.
Drawing Attention showcases the gallery's finest European and North American drawings. Demonstrating the AGO's commitment to acquisition and preservation at the highest level, this book celebrates a dazzling collection.
