Issued in conjunction with a 1997 exhibition of artwork once collected by National Gallery trustee Denis Mahon. His collection "of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Italian paintings is among the most impressive in the world and is certainly the finest formed in Britain this century. It includes masterpieces by Guercino, Guido Reni, Domenichino, Annibale Carracci, and superb works by Luca Giordano, Pietro da Cortona, Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini and Giuseppe Maria Crespi, as well as a large number of drawings by Guercino." (dj) The annotated and illustrated catalogue presents 109 specific pieces. Includes an essay about Mahon and an extensive bibliography.
