- Breve biografia
- Roseline Bacou was born in Le Pradet in southeastern France, a daughter of Simone and Paul Bacou, and granddaughter of painter Gustave Fayet. She earned a degree in art history at the University of Montpellier. In 1949, she joined the Cabinet des dessins (Department of Drawings) at the Musée de Louvre, where she spent her entire career. In 1984, she became head of the Département des Arts Graphiques (Department of Graphic Arts), which she managed until her retirement in 1988. Roseline Bacou was a specialist on the works of Odilon Redon, the 19th-century French Symbolist artist, who was the subject of her dissertation. She published extensively on the artist and in 1956 organized the first retrospective on him. She was also the curator and co-curator of a considerable number of exhibitions, highlighting both French art and Italian drawings.
In her final years, she devoted her energy to restoring the Abbaye Saint-André in Villeneuve-les-Avignon and its gardens.

Interesting to me also was the fact that none of these drawings seemed to be in graphite. They were all either done in chalk: red, black, white, etc., on coloured paper. Or they were done in pen and brown ink. Very few other options. In actuality, the collection (just a part of the 90,000 in the Louvre collection at the time of publication) deals with the period from around 1350 to 1750 AD. So really rather a limited age range.
Each print is accompanied by some detailed description about the technique, the provenance, the artist and the drawing itself. All of which seems to be both scholarly and interesting.
That said, it is really just a collection of drawings with annotations. Plus a brief overview at the beginning ...which mainly deals with the way the collection was built up from Royal collections. Happy to give it 4 stars.… (altro)
