Moravec Collection from October 1.12 New Testament drawings by Domenico Tiepolo, from among the now scattered 320 drawings, will be on display.

They are a unique combination of Biblical and mythological elements, and the Eskenazi Museum is now the third largest repository of the New Testament series. The exhibition also features works by Domenico's father Giambattista Tiepolo.These works on paper by two of the most significant Italian draftsmen of their era will be displayed alongside pieces by other artists such as Ubaldo Gandolfi and Giuseppe Bernardino Bison, as well as their predecessor Jacopo Palma il Giovane.
