This fascinating exhibition of "Views of Rome: Drawings and Watercolors from the Collection of the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana" gives the visitor a unique opportunity to observe European draftsmanship of the highest order from the Renaissance to the age of Romanticism. The exhibition does not present a historic survey of European drawing of Rome, but it does exemplify the richness and importance of the Vatican Library collections, as well as providing a reflection of the development of public and private taste. In this regard the Vatican Library is unique among the great European libraries, as it has been from its foundation intended as a public collection.

Highlights the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland with selections from the Italian, German, Dutch, Flemish, Spanish, French, British, and Irish schools

The National Gallery of Ireland has an important and fascinating collection, covering the main schools of Western art. Established in the 19th century, the Gallery houses pieces ranging from Byzantine icons to 20th-century paintings. In tune with the changing styles in art during the early years of the 20th century, the Gallery acquired works by artists such as Degas, Signac, Bonnard and Picasso. In addition it holds works by earlier masters, including Mantegna, Caravaggio, Vel zquez, Poussin, Rembrandt and Vermeer. As well as presenting art from across Europe, this guide is uniquely informative about members of the Irish School, such as Lavery, Orpen and Jack B. Yeats.
