A small, elegant exhibition on view at the Morgan Library and Museum in New York, Palladio and His Legacy: A Transatlantic Journey, has been attracting numerous visitors since it opened April 2, 2010. Organized by the Royal Institute of British Architects (the RIBA) Trust, in London, in association with the Centro Internazionale di Studi di Architettura (CISA) Andrea Palladio in Vicenza, and the Morgan, the exhibition includes thirty-one infrequently seen drawings by Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) from the collections of the RIBA Trust. Supplementing the drawings are the RIBA’s rare books by Palladio, Vitruvius (whose Roman treatise influenced Palladio), and 18th century followers of the architect.
