Lavish illustrations of the works of the Frick Collection’s Eveillard Gift with comprehensive commentaries by noted scholars in their field.\nThis beautiful publication presents for the first time the Eveillard Gift of drawings to the Frick Collection in New York, the most important gift of drawings and pastels in the museum’s history. It accompanies an exhibition and includes a catalog of the works and commentaries by noted scholars.\nTwenty-six works of art promised to the Frick Collection by longtime supporters Elizabeth and Jean-Marie Eveillard dramatically advance the museum’s commitment to the research and display of European drawings. Included in this transformative gift are exquisite drawings, pastels, and prints by François Boucher, Gustave Caillebotte, Edgar Degas, Eugène Delacroix, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Thomas Lawrence, Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, John Singer Sargent, Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun, and Jean-Antoine Watteau, among others. The works include figurative sketches, independent studies, portraits, and landscape scenes, each either deepening the museum’s celebrated holdings or bringing the work of an artist who is not—but should be—represented in the collection.

Review\n"An inherently fascinating and expertly illustrated volume"—Midwest Book Review\nA celebration of the first works in porcelain Penone has created, among the largest pieces of porcelain ever produced at Sèvres 
A major figure in the Arte Povera movement of the late 1960s, the renowned Italian artist Giuseppe Penone (b. 1947) is known for his exploration of the relationship between art and the natural world in a body of work that includes sculpture, performance, works on paper, and even garden design. His first works in porcelain, the exquisite disks presented here, draw attention to the moment of touch—the convergence of surface and skin—that underpins so much of his work. 
Published to accompany a special exhibition of works by Penone organised by New York’s Frick Collection, this new volume comprises eleven porcelain disks that the artist made during his 2013 collaboration with the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, the influential porcelain factory founded in the 18th century. A continuation of his Propagazioni (Propagations) series, begun in 1995, which includes various media, each disk bears the imprint of one of the artist’s fingertips. One of them is in gold, its imprint a variation on the artist’s index finger. Never before presented to the public, the disks are installed in a gallery adjacent to a porcelain at the Frick's temporary home on Madison Avenue, kindling a rich artistic dialogue which is further explored in this volume.

New volume in the Frick Diptych series focuses on an exquisite Renaissance portrait, pairing an essay by Frick curator Giulio Dalvit with a rich contribution from contemporary artist Elizabeth Peyton. Various identities for the richly dressed, contemplative young man in this portrait have been proposed but none with any certainty. The mood of the subject and the diffused, gentle play of light over the broadly painted surfaces are strongly reminiscent of Titian's Venetian contemporary Giorgione. In many ways, the Frick portrait epitomizes a new tendency in Italian Renaissance portraiture in which the depiction is intended less as a description of the sitter than as an encounter with them. A rich contribution by artist Elizabeth Peyton accompanies an illuminating essay by Giulio Dalvit which addresses the many questions of provenance, chronology, attribution and of who this mysterious young man might be.
