Spanning the period 1450-1640, this book considers diverse watercolours together for the first time, bringing together 150 paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Durer, Hans Holbein, Nicholas Hilliard and Anthony Van Dyck, as well as works by less well-known figures such as Giulio Clovio, Joris Hoefnagel, Jacopo Ligozzi and Jacques le Moyne. It highlights the intellectual breadth and artistic quality of the Renaissance watercolour, an art form which reached as far afield as the New World and the court of the Mughal emperor.
