Castiglione: Lost Genius
Bad boy artist of the Italian Baroque, Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (1609-64), was featured in a BBC4 documentary last week. They highlighted the exhibition currently being run by the Royal Collection. Would really like to see this. I was impressed by the examples of drawings and monotype prints they showed on the programme and there was something about the style that really appealed. The exhibition runs until the 16th March so perhaps I will try and go in the new year.
