Deaf, Dumb and BrilliantJohan Thopas, Master Draughtsman\nAuthor(s): Rudlolf E.O. Ekkart\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd\nISBN-13: 9781907372674, 978-1907372674\nSynopsis\nUntil recently, the Dutch draughtsman Johan Thopas, who was born in 1626 both deaf and dumb, was only known to a small group of connoisseurs, dealers and collectors. However, his remarkable, subtle and technically refined portrait drawings on parchment deserve a wider audience. This handsome publication, the first devoted to his work, will prove to be an eye opener for any art lovers. Beginning with his earliest works (two beautiful miniatures of 1646 in the Fondation Custodia in Paris), Thopas produced incredibly refine drawings, usually with lead point on parchment. He had an almost magic control of the lead point, and his sense of texture and the way he was able to achieve this with minimal means is astounding, setting him apa.
