This presentation of the Renaissance and Baroque bronzes of the Nationalmuseum is the first attempt to introduce this important collection to the international art world by means of a catalog raisonné. In addition to possessing the largest collection of works by Adrian de Vries, Nationalmuseum also exhibits works by noted sculptors such as Giovanni Bologna and Jan Gregor van der Schardt. Their collections, mostly comprised of French and Italian sculptures, are largely indebted to the acquisitions of Carl Gustav Tessin while he acted as ambassador in Paris. This catalog presents sixty sculptures, most of which are depicted in full-page photographs and accompanied by lengthy descriptions.
