"Poussin's drawings are concerned mostly with the development of compositions, rather than with exploring individual poses or catching particular motifs. This book is both a catalogue of the drawings by Poussin and his circle in the Royal Library at Windsor Castle - one of the world's most important holdings of drawings by Poussin, with a provenance going back to the collections of his friends & patrons - and an accompaniment to a travelling exhibition of sixty-five drawings, as part of the celebrations of the 400th anniversary of Poussin's birth.
