Drawings by Rembrandt and his circle in the British Museum

British Museum Press

In 1895 Parliament voted a special grant of #25,000 to the British Museum so that it could aquire the collection of prints and drawings formed by John Malcolm of Poltalloch. Comprising almost 1000 drawings and more than 400 prints, the Malcolm Collection was considered an important addition to the Museum's holdings of old master drawings, as it included works by Sandro Botticelli, Andrea del Verrocchio, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Claude Lorrain and Watteau. This work presents a selection of 100 old master drawings from the Malcolm collection. An introduction, by Stephen Coppel, outlines the history of the collection and the life of John Malcolm, a passionate collector and connoisseur.

The light of nature: Landscape drawings and watercolours by van Dyck and his contemporaries

Published to accompany a special exhibition in Antwerp and at the British Museum, celebrating the 400th anniversary of van Dyck's birth, this book traces the rapid growth in the practice of sketching during the 1620s and 1630s.

<p>Rembrandt was the most original printmaker of all time. In no fewer than 300 images, he covered the full range of styles and subjects for which he is celebrated, including self-portraits, scenes from the Bible, vignettes of every day, and character studies. Rembrandt was famously experimental, and often reworked his copper plates to improve and extend their expressive power, creating startlingly modern results. </p>
<p> Rembrandt the Printmaker, compiled by three leading authorities on Rembrandt, and published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam) and British Museum (London), aims to illustrate a selection of his finest prints. Exciting new areas of research have opened up in recent years, making it possible to follow the progress of Rembrandt's work on each plate and also revealing details of his habit of revising the images at various times throughout his life. All of these new insights are presented to the wider public for the first time in Rembrandt the Printmaker, which is lavishly illustrated with 80 color and 320 black/white images.</p>
