School of Paolo Veronese
The School of Paolo Veronese carries forward the grand Venetian manner of the later sixteenth century, with its monumental figure style and rich sense of form. The single sheet held here, Head of a Bearded Man, is drawn in black chalk heightened with white on greenish blue paper — a combination well suited to modelling flesh and light in preparatory studies. The collection's holdings date to 1565, and any impressions in it reach no further than that year.
