| Summary: | Purchased for the most part in 1869-71 by the founders of the Crocker Art Museum, the master drawings in this rich historic collection are in some ways a time capsule that gives insight into the European art market and the taste of the patrons. Through this catalogue the Museum introduces a selection of the best drawings to the public for the first time, and provides a splendid overview of this unique collection, shedding fuller light on its history and context, both in relation to California events and to American patronage. |
