Abstract

Up to now the Museum of Fine Arts has not staged an exhibition solely devoted to sixteenth-century Netherlandish drawings since only a smaller part of these works was displayed in 1932 and 1967 in shows spanning two or more centuries. In the past decades European museums also did not mount exhibitions providing a comprehensive picture of the great changes that took place in Netherlandish drawing between 1500 and 1600. The Budapest collection of drawings - similarly to other collections - does not have material extensive enough to present the art of all the prominent Netherlandish masters; therefore, for the sake of completeness, we will borrow some important sheets by Jan Gossaert, Pieter Brueghel, Roelandt Savery, Bartholomeus Spranger, Lodewijk Toeput and Frederick Sustris from the Albertina in Vienna. However, our collection is famous for some specialists, which significantly increases its importance.
