An article in Il Sole 24 Ore highlights a new exhibition of drawings at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence saying that it is a show that is not to be missed.  It includes over 100 drawings by some of the best-known artists of the time, ranging from Fra’ Angelico to Michelangelo to Titian.  The article points out that the show illustrates the function of drawings of that era:  not to be hung on walls as decorative objects, but as a way of presenting and storing ideas, of passing on “goods” to children and students, as presents for other artists or patrons, as depictions of events, or even as drafts for paintings.
