Browse Sample Pages

This catalogue accompanies an exhibition celebrating the promised gift to The Frick Collection of twenty-six works on paper from the extraordinary collection of Elizabeth and Jean-Marie Eveillard. With drawings by Boucher, Constable, Delacroix, Fragonard, Goya, and Vigée Le Brun, among others, the gift is remarkable for its scope and quality. This lavishly illustrated and deeply researched volume features entries on each work in the gift as well as an essay by Xavier F. Salomon, the Frick’s Deputy Director and Peter Jay Sharp Chief Curator, exploring the genesis of the Eveillard collection and the gift’s role in energizing the Frick’s commitment to the research and display of European drawings.
