e rich collections of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (kmskb) offer a sample of no less than six centuries of art. The many sketches in the collection bear witness to the creation process of works of art from all periods.
Creative urge. Sketches in the collections of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium show a rich range of sketches: painted, drawn or sculpted, intended for paintings, tapestries, reliefs, statues, engravings, etc., studies for individual figures, for details or a complete composition. Without distinction, they show the hand of the artist.
An exquisite selection of two hundred works of art and more than three hundred illustrations offers a unique insight into the creative thinking of the artist, from the first often hesitant steps to the final work, from underdrawings in the Flemish Primitives, via sparkling nature observations to three-dimensional models in modern sculptors, along the virtuoso painted sketches of Rubens and Van Dyck and the sketchbooks of Fernand Khnopff.
This book is published on the occasion of the exhibition ‘Drafts. From Rubens to Khnopff’, organised by the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, from 11 October 2024 to 16 February 2025. IN DUTCH BUT AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH OR FRENCH UPON REQUEST!
