Donated to the Louvre Museum on December 28, 1935, by the heirs of Baron and Baroness de Rothschild, the collection that now bears its author's name brings together one of the world's richest collections of prints, niellos, and drawings from the early Italian Renaissance. Developed around the presentation of two books of patterns that are among the oldest Italian Renaissance drawings, the exhibition—combining drawings by early masters and incunabula, often still unpublished, with a few masterful pieces belonging to the Cabinet of Drawings—presents the public with an introduction to the history of the art of printmaking in Italy, from its origins to the last workshops of the 15th century. This incomparable collection of masterpieces of the graphic arts of the Quattrocento reveals the entire spirit of the first Italian Renaissance workshops.
