The first comprehensive monograph on Pietro Faccini’s drawings, presenting newly attributed works and offering a definitive reassessment of one of the most original masters of the Bolognese school.
This groundbreaking monograph is the first comprehensive study dedicated to the extraordinary graphic work of Pietro Faccini (1562–1602), one of the most original artists of the Bolognese school. Based on decades of research initiated by Mario Di Giampaolo and edited by Donatella Cingottini and Nicolas Schwed, the volume reconstructs Faccini’s remarkable corpus of drawings, many of which have been newly attributed after careful examination of public collections, private holdings and the international art market.
Produced in close collaboration with the Department of Prints and Drawings of the Uffizi Galleries, the book presents a systematic catalogue that redefines Faccini’s artistic identity, distinguishing his highly expressive draftsmanship from that of contemporaries such as Annibale Carracci. Richly illustrated with colour and black-and-white reproductions, this publication establishes a new reference work for scholars, collectors and enthusiasts of Italian Renaissance and Baroque drawing.
