The exhibition The Drawings of Bronzino, on view through April 18, is the first ever dedicated to Agnolo Bronzino (1503-1572), and includes nearly all the known drawings by, or attributed to, this leading Italian Mannerist artist. A painter, draftsman, scholar, and poet, Bronzino became famous as the court artist to the Duke Cosimo I de' Medici and his wife, the Duchess Eleonora di Toledo. The exhibition contains approximately 60 drawings from European and North-American collections, many of which have never before been on public view.
