Italian Renaissance drawings at the British Museum


If you are a big fan of Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo, make sure to book your tickets for this amazing exhibition at the British Museum : Italian Renaissance drawings, some of them never seen before in Britain. The exhibition will run from 22 April to 25 July 2010 and will features 100 exquisite drawings by Italian Renaissance artists including Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo and Verrocchio.

During the 3 months of the exhibition, it is expected that thousands of visitors will travel from Europe and the USA to visit London and see this amazing "once in a life time" exhibition. It will be a unique opportunity to see The British Museum’s collection of Italian Renaissance drawings. The masterpieces are so fragile that they are only exhibited once in a generation. The exhibition has been planned in partnership with the Uffizi in Florence. Almost half of the works will come from Florence, and some have never been shown in the UK before.

This exhibition is a unique opportunity to discover the evolution of drawing during the 15th century and to view some really beautiful art. Some of these drawings represent the origin of the High Renaissance style of Michelangelo and Raphael, and with the impressive list of artist included in the exhibition, it will be a fantastic experience for all art lovers....and maybe an unusual inspiration place for tattoo artists.
