Tiepolo in Holland
Celebrating the 300th anniversary of the birth of the Venetian painter, draftsman, and printmaker Giambattista Tiepolo (1696-1770), this volume brings together the paintings, drawings, and prints of Giambattista and his two sons, Domenico and Lorenzo Tiepolo that are preserved in Dutch collections -- including the rich holdings of the Rijksmuseum and the Institut Neerlandais in Paris. Together they do justice to the versatility and virtuosity of the Venetian master of the Baroque and his studio.
