"This volume presents 140 of the drawings with a full-page duotone or color illustration accompanied by an essay consisting of a critical text, as well as a complete physical description, bibliography, provenance, and exhibition history. Additional drawings are presented on a smaller scale and with abbreviated descriptions."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
