Hendrick Goltzius, Dutch Master (1558–1617): Drawings, Prints, and Paintings

The first major retrospective devoted to this virtuoso Netherlandish mannerist features spectacular figural displays in prints, remarkable pen paintings on parchment, vivid portraits and nature studies in colored chalk and silverpoint, and paintings of mythological and religious subjects on canvas and copper. Culled from collections throughout Europe and the United States, the selection of 69 drawings, 80 prints, and 13 paintings spans the artist’s entire career and demonstrates his legendary mastery of a wide range of media, subject matter, and styles.
