Italian Renaissance Drawings

Synopsis
More than any other medium, drawings give a direct insight into how Italian Renaissance artists worked. Featuring outstanding examples from two major collections - the Uffizi in Florence and the British Museum in London - this film explores how masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Botticelli and Verrocchio used preparatory drawings to perfect more naturalistic forms and perspective. Interviews with scholars, art historians and practitioners reveal how this art form evolved and laid the foundations of the High Renaissance style of Michelangelo and Raphael.
