The young Velázquez : The education of the Virgin restored /
Marciari, John.Young Velázquez.
Navarrete Prieto, Benito.Education of the Virgin and naturalist formula.
"Donated to Yale in 1925, the Yale University Art Gallery's Education of the Virgin--depicting Saint Anne teaching a young Virgin Mary to read--was long considered to be a work by an unknown Spanish artist. Considerably damaged, the painting was relegated to storage and never carefully studied until 2004, when John Marciari reattributed the work to Diego Velázquez (1599-1660), the most significant painter of the Spanish Golden Age. The extraordinary narrative of this painting and its reattribution is chronicled here, accompanied by a detailed description of the painting's conservation campaign and thoughtful analysis of the artist's technique."--
"Published in conjunction with the exhibition El joven Velázquez: 'La educación de la virgen' de Yale restaurada, organized by the mayor of the city of Seville and the Yale University Art Gallery."
