Od Michelangela po Callota. Umění grafiky manýrismu

Prepared by the National Gallery in Prague in partnership with the Musée du Louvre, the comprehensive publication accompanying the exhibition is a collective monograph devoted to printmaking throughout all major art centres of Europe in the 16th and early 17th centuries. During that period, printmaking reached a superior quality and became an important platform of art and the dissemination of art-related information. The fully illustrated scholarly catalogue is the result of the collaborative efforts between curators from the NGP and specialists from abroad, notably the Musée de Louvre, and other colleagues form France, Austria and the Netherlands, as well as many accomplished researchers from the Czech Republic. The book is divided into nine thematic chapters with introductory essays and 166 catalogue entries over more than 400 pages. Unique in concept and extent, this Czech-English publication will also contribute to raising awareness of the significance of printmaking on an international scale.
